dil mein tufan uThate hue jazbaat bhi hain
dil meñ tūfān uThāte hue jazbāt bhī haiñ
ham haiñ ḳhāmosh ki kuchh apnī rivāyāt bhī haiñ
mohtasib hī se nahīñ nāla-ba-lab jām-o-subū
sañg uThā.e hue ḳhud ahl-e-ḳharābāt bhī haiñ
mastiyoñ meñ kabhī mil jaate haiñ insāñ ab bhī
jaise sahrāoñ meñ shādāb maqāmāt bhī haiñ
dekhiye mujh se vo kab aa ke gale miltā hai
the jo mere vahī ab ġhair ke hālāt bhī haiñ
ashk hī ashk nahīñ ġhaur se dekhoge agar
in sulagtī huī āñkhoñ meñ hikāyāt bhī haiñ
un ke dāman pe lahū kis ko yaqīñ aa.egā
jin ke chehroñ pe taqaddus kī alāmāt bhī haiñ
kyā kahīñ kaun sī rāhoñ meñ haiñ pāmāl 'karam'
ham ki zinda haiñ magar kushta-hālāt bhī haiñ
dil mein tufan uThate hue jazbaat bhi hain
hum hain KHamosh ki kuchh apni riwayat bhi hain
mohtasib hi se nahin nala-ba-lab jam-o-subu
sang uThae hue KHud ahl-e-KHarabaat bhi hain
mastiyon mein kabhi mil jate hain insan ab bhi
jaise sahraon mein shadab maqamat bhi hain
dekhiye mujh se wo kab aa ke gale milta hai
the jo mere wahi ab ghair ke haalat bhi hain
ashk hi ashk nahin ghaur se dekhoge agar
in sulagti hui aankhon mein hikayat bhi hain
un ke daman pe lahu kis ko yaqin aaega
jin ke chehron pe taqaddus ki alamat bhi hain
kya kahin kaun si rahon mein hain pamal 'karam'
hum ki zinda hain magar kushta-haalat bhi hain
