chalte haiñ gulshan-e-firdaus meñ ghar lete haiñ
tai ye manzil jo ḳhudā chāhe to kar lete haiñ
ishq kis vāste karte haiñ parī-zādoñ se
kis liye jaan par aafat ye bashar lete haiñ
dekhne bhī jo vo jaate haiñ kisī ghā.el ko
ik namak-dāñ meñ namak piis ke bhar lete haiñ
ḳhaak uḌ jaatī hai suthrāv udhar hotā hai
nīmchā kheñch ke vo baag jidhar lete haiñ
maiñ vo bīmār huuñ allāh se jā ke iisā
mire nusḳhoñ ke liye hukm-e-asar lete haiñ
yaar ne luuT liyā mujh vatan-āvāra ko
log ġhurbat meñ musāfir kī ḳhabar lete haiñ
is taraf haiñ ki jharoke meñ udhar baiThe haiñ
jā.eza kushtoñ kā apne vo kidhar lete haiñ
Thiik us rashk-e-chaman ko vo qabā hotī hai
naap kar jis kī rag-e-gul se kamar lete haiñ
kuchh Thikānā hai parī-zādoñ kī be-rahmī kā
ishq-bāzoñ se qisās aaTh pahar lete haiñ
ye nayā zulm hai ġhussa jo unheñ aatā hai
be-gunāhoñ ko bhī māḳhūz vo kar lete haiñ
shohrat us said-e-vafādār kī uḌ jaatī hai
tiir meñ jis ke lagāne ko vo par lete haiñ
kahte haiñ hūroñ ke dil meñ tire kushtoñ ke banāv
is liye ḳhuuñ meñ nahā kar vo nikhar lete haiñ
kis qadar nāma-o-paiġhām ko tarsāyā hai
bhejte haiñ ḳhabar apnī na ḳhabar lete haiñ
dam nikalte haiñ kalejoñ se lahū jaarī hai
saañs ulTī tire taftīda-jigar lete haiñ
chal khaḌe hoñge to hastī maiñ na phir Thahreñge
jān-e-jāñ chand nafas dam ye bashar lete haiñ
hai ishāra yahī mū-hā-e-mizha kā un kī
ham vo nashtar haiñ ki jo ḳhūn-e-jigar lete haiñ
sāmnā karte haiñ jis vaqt gadā kā tere
bādshah taḳht-e-ravāñ par se utar lete haiñ
sikka-e-dāġh-e-junūñ paas haiñ rahnā hoshyār
log raste meñ 'sharaf' jeb katar lete haiñ
chalte hain gulshan-e-firdaus mein ghar lete hain
tai ye manzil jo KHuda chahe to kar lete hain
ishq kis waste karte hain pari-zadon se
kis liye jaan par aafat ye bashar lete hain
dekhne bhi jo wo jate hain kisi ghael ko
ek namak-dan mein namak pis ke bhar lete hain
KHak uD jati hai suthraw udhar hota hai
nimcha khench ke wo bag jidhar lete hain
main wo bimar hun allah se ja ke isa
mere nusKHon ke liye hukm-e-asar lete hain
yar ne luT liya mujh watan-awara ko
log ghurbat mein musafir ki KHabar lete hain
is taraf hain ki jharoke mein udhar baiThe hain
jaeza kushton ka apne wo kidhar lete hain
Thik us rashk-e-chaman ko wo qaba hoti hai
nap kar jis ki rag-e-gul se kamar lete hain
kuchh Thikana hai pari-zadon ki be-rahmi ka
ishq-bazon se qisas aaTh pahar lete hain
ye naya zulm hai ghussa jo unhen aata hai
be-gunahon ko bhi maKHuz wo kar lete hain
shohrat us said-e-wafadar ki uD jati hai
tir mein jis ke lagane ko wo par lete hain
kahte hain huron ke dil mein tere kushton ke banaw
is liye KHun mein naha kar wo nikhar lete hain
kis qadar nama-o-paigham ko tarsaya hai
bhejte hain KHabar apni na KHabar lete hain
dam nikalte hain kalejon se lahu jari hai
sans ulTi tere taftida-jigar lete hain
chal khaDe honge to hasti main na phir Thahrenge
jaan-e-jaan chand nafas dam ye bashar lete hain
hai ishaara yahi mu-ha-e-mizha ka un ki
hum wo nashtar hain ki jo KHun-e-jigar lete hain
samna karte hain jis waqt gada ka tere
baadshah taKHt-e-rawan par se utar lete hain
sikka-e-dagh-e-junun pas hain rahna hoshyar
log raste mein 'sharaf' jeb katar lete hain
