fikr yahi hai har ghaDi gham yahi subh o sham hai
fikr yahī hai har ghaḌī ġham yahī sub.h o shaam hai
gar na milā vo kuchh dinoñ kaam yahāñ tamām hai
ab haiñ hamāre naam par saikḌoñ gāliyāñ ye lutf
kahte the tum miyāñ miyāñ vo hī to ye ġhulām hai
ḳhair na miliye roz roz yūñhī sahī kabhī kabhī
us se bhī inhirāf hai is meñ bhī kuchh kalām hai
ai dil-e-be-qarār kuchh kar vo ruke to rukne de
fā.eda iztirāb se sabr kā ye maqām hai
koī kahe burā bhalā koī adū ho yā ho dost
aur kisī se kaam kyā aap se mujh ko kaam hai
haa.e har ik kī vo sune kuchh maiñ kahūñ to ye kahe
aap na mujh se kuchh kaheñ aap se kab kalām hai
aaj haiñ ham to jāñ-ba-lab kal ko gar aa.e bhī husūl
tum ko kisī se kyā ġharaz apnī ḳhushī se kaam hai
ye bhī ġhazab kā rashk hai ḳhat to hai nām-e-ġhair par
aur lifāfe par likhā sahv se merā naam hai
kis ko kyā shahīd-e-nāz kis kī huī vafā pasand
kahte haiñ un ke dar par aaj ḳhalq kā azhdahām hai
ab haiñ fareb kis liye hogā yaqīñ kisī ko ab
tum se vafā kī aarzū ye bhī ḳhayāl-e-ḳhām hai
tauba kā yaañ kise ḳhayāl mai ko samajhte haiñ halāl
jis ke liye harām hai us ke liye harām hai
din ho to āfateñ ye kuchh raat ho to ye kuchh sitam
kaisī hamārī sub.h hai kaisī hamārī shaam hai
hijr ke vo sitam sahe ab na rahī havā-e-vasl
haal yahī hai nāma-bar ye hī mirā payām hai
sun ke mirī fuġhāñ kā shor pūchhā kisī ne kaun hai
bole sunā na hogā kyaa, ye to vahī 'nizām' hai
fikr yahi hai har ghaDi gham yahi subh o sham hai
gar na mila wo kuchh dinon kaam yahan tamam hai
ab hain hamare nam par saikDon galiyan ye lutf
kahte the tum miyan miyan wo hi to ye ghulam hai
KHair na miliye roz roz yunhi sahi kabhi kabhi
us se bhi inhiraf hai is mein bhi kuchh kalam hai
ai dil-e-be-qarar kuchh kar wo ruke to rukne de
faeda iztirab se sabr ka ye maqam hai
koi kahe bura bhala koi adu ho ya ho dost
aur kisi se kaam kya aap se mujh ko kaam hai
hae har ek ki wo sune kuchh main kahun to ye kahe
aap na mujh se kuchh kahen aap se kab kalam hai
aaj hain hum to jaan-ba-lab kal ko gar aae bhi husul
tum ko kisi se kya gharaz apni KHushi se kaam hai
ye bhi ghazab ka rashk hai KHat to hai nam-e-ghair par
aur lifafe par likha sahw se mera nam hai
kis ko kya shahid-e-naz kis ki hui wafa pasand
kahte hain un ke dar par aaj KHalq ka azhdaham hai
ab hain fareb kis liye hoga yaqin kisi ko ab
tum se wafa ki aarzu ye bhi KHayal-e-KHam hai
tauba ka yan kise KHayal mai ko samajhte hain halal
jis ke liye haram hai us ke liye haram hai
din ho to aafaten ye kuchh raat ho to ye kuchh sitam
kaisi hamari subh hai kaisi hamari sham hai
hijr ke wo sitam sahe ab na rahi hawa-e-wasl
haal yahi hai nama-bar ye hi mera payam hai
sun ke meri fughan ka shor puchha kisi ne kaun hai
bole suna na hoga kya, ye to wahi 'nizam' hai
