chaman mein rah ke bhi kyun dil ki virani nahin jati
chaman meñ rah ke bhī kyuuñ dil kī vīrānī nahīñ jaatī
bas itnī baat par logoñ kī hairānī nahīñ jaatī
muqaddar par huā huuñ jab se maiñ raazī usī din se
ḳhushī ho yā ki ġham chehre kī tābānī nahīñ jaatī
farishte bhī hamārī qismatoñ par naaz karte haiñ
magar apnī haqīqat ham se pahchānī nahīñ jaatī
anā kā mas.ala dīvāngī se kam nahīñ hotā
haqīqat kitnī bhī vāzeh ho vo maanī nahīñ jaatī
haqīqat meñ vo ā.īna-sifat insān hotā hai
ki tauba kar ke bhī jis kī pashemānī nahīñ jaatī
ye shikve aur ye hīle-bahāne kyuuñ abas kiije
jinheñ bachnā ho un kī pāk-dāmānī nahīñ jaatī
nazar meñ phir rahā hai bas kisī ke husn kā manzar
mazāq-e-dīd kī vo jalva-sāmānī nahīñ jaatī
mohabbat ke liye ab to riyā-kārī zarūrī hai
yahāñ ahl-e-junūñ kī qadr pahchānī nahīñ jaatī
qayāmat kī nishānī ye nahīñ to aur phir kyā hai
libās achchhe haiñ lekin phir bhī uryānī nahīñ jaatī
ta.alluq dūriyoñ se aur bhī mazbūt hotā hai
'sahar' insāñ kī lekin ḳhū-e-nādānī nahīñ jaatī
chaman mein rah ke bhi kyun dil ki virani nahin jati
bas itni baat par logon ki hairani nahin jati
muqaddar par hua hun jab se main raazi usi din se
KHushi ho ya ki gham chehre ki tabani nahin jati
farishte bhi hamari qismaton par naz karte hain
magar apni haqiqat hum se pahchani nahin jati
ana ka masala diwangi se kam nahin hota
haqiqat kitni bhi wazeh ho wo mani nahin jati
haqiqat mein wo aaina-sifat insan hota hai
ki tauba kar ke bhi jis ki pashemani nahin jati
ye shikwe aur ye hile-bahane kyun abas kije
jinhen bachna ho un ki pak-damani nahin jati
nazar mein phir raha hai bas kisi ke husn ka manzar
mazaq-e-did ki wo jalwa-samani nahin jati
mohabbat ke liye ab to riya-kari zaruri hai
yahan ahl-e-junun ki qadr pahchani nahin jati
qayamat ki nishani ye nahin to aur phir kya hai
libas achchhe hain lekin phir bhi uryani nahin jati
talluq duriyon se aur bhi mazbut hota hai
'sahar' insan ki lekin KHu-e-nadani nahin jati
