ezār-e-yār pe zulf-e-siyāh-fām nahīñ
magar ye hashr kā din hai ki jis kī shaam nahīñ
firāq-e-yār meñ dono se ham ko kaam nahīñ
havas sahar kī nahīñ ārzū-e-shām nahīñ
vilā-e-kāba-e-abrū se muñh ko kyā pherūñ
namāz ḳhatm na ho jab talak salām nahīñ
ye saif aap kī misl-e-parī-sahī-qad hai
magar ye aib hai chaltī nahīñ ḳhirām nahīñ
kaho na sarv ko ik zar-ḳharīd hī apnā
kiyā jo bande ko āzād phir ġhulām nahīñ
nahīñ i.āda-e-tā.at ko peshvā darkār
qazā namāz ko kuchh hājat-e-imām nahīñ
kisī tarah shab-e-furqat basar nahīñ hotī
kuchh is ko gardish-e-ayyām se bhī kaam nahīñ
jo us ne baat na kī ho gayā mujhe isbāt
dahan vo tañg hai gunjā.ish-e-kalām nahīñ
bujhī hai aab se kyā terī teġh-e-tez kī aañch
ki ḳhūñfishāñ mire dil kā kabāb-e-ḳhām nahīñ
phirī hai furqat-e-jānāñ meñ chashm-e-duḳhtar-e-raz
ye gardish aañkh kī saaqī hai daur-e-jām nahīñ
na dekhā naqsh qadam kā sadā-e-pā na sunī
samand-e-umr sā koī subuk ḳhirām nahīñ
barahna rahtī hai shamshīr-e-abrū-e-qātil
misāl-e-teġh-e-ajal hājat-e-niyām nahīñ
bañdheñ vo haath hinā se kiyā hai jin se shahīd
kuchh aur yaar se manzūr intiqām nahīñ
na daaġh do shab-e-furqat kā din ko naam na lo
abhī charāġh na raushan karo ki shaam nahīñ
jigar se siine se dil se guzar ga.ī dam meñ
tirī tarah tirī talvār ko qayām nahīñ
sitāra-e-falak-e-husn kahiye kam-sin hai
abhī vo chāñd kā TukḌā mah-e-tamām nahīñ
phire talab meñ jo duniyā kī vo nahīñ dīñ-dār
misāl-e-dāna jo gardish meñ hai imaam nahīñ
na ḳhatt-e-mus.haf-e-āriz kā mo'taqid ho 'vazīr'
hurūf jis meñ hoñ allāh kā kalām nahīñ
ezar-e-yar pe zulf-e-siyah-fam nahin
magar ye hashr ka din hai ki jis ki sham nahin
firaq-e-yar mein dono se hum ko kaam nahin
hawas sahar ki nahin aarzu-e-sham nahin
wila-e-kaba-e-abru se munh ko kya pherun
namaz KHatm na ho jab talak salam nahin
ye saif aap ki misl-e-pari-sahi-qad hai
magar ye aib hai chalti nahin KHiram nahin
kaho na sarw ko ek zar-KHarid hi apna
kiya jo bande ko aazad phir ghulam nahin
nahin iada-e-taat ko peshwa darkar
qaza namaz ko kuchh hajat-e-imam nahin
kisi tarah shab-e-furqat basar nahin hoti
kuchh is ko gardish-e-ayyam se bhi kaam nahin
jo us ne baat na ki ho gaya mujhe isbaat
dahan wo tang hai gunjaish-e-kalam nahin
bujhi hai aab se kya teri tegh-e-tez ki aanch
ki KHunfishan mere dil ka kabab-e-KHam nahin
phiri hai furqat-e-jaanan mein chashm-e-duKHtar-e-raz
ye gardish aankh ki saqi hai daur-e-jam nahin
na dekha naqsh qadam ka sada-e-pa na suni
samand-e-umr sa koi subuk KHiram nahin
barahna rahti hai shamshir-e-abru-e-qatil
misal-e-tegh-e-ajal hajat-e-niyam nahin
bandhen wo hath hina se kiya hai jin se shahid
kuchh aur yar se manzur intiqam nahin
na dagh do shab-e-furqat ka din ko nam na lo
abhi charagh na raushan karo ki sham nahin
jigar se sine se dil se guzar gai dam mein
teri tarah teri talwar ko qayam nahin
sitara-e-falak-e-husn kahiye kam-sin hai
abhi wo chand ka TukDa mah-e-tamam nahin
phire talab mein jo duniya ki wo nahin din-dar
misal-e-dana jo gardish mein hai imam nahin
na KHatt-e-mushaf-e-ariz ka mo'taqid ho 'wazir'
huruf jis mein hon allah ka kalam nahin
