ghairon ko bhala samjhe aur mujhko bura jaana
ġhairoñ ko bhalā samjhe aur mujh ko burā jaanā
samjhe bhī to kyā samjhe jaanā bhī to kyā jaanā
ik umr ke dukh paa.e sote haiñ farāġhat se
ai ġhalġhala-e-mahshar ham ko na jagā jaanā
māñgūñ to sahī bosa par kyā hai ilaaj is kā
yaañ hoñT kā hil jaanā vaañ baat kā pā jaanā
go umr basar us kī tahqīq meñ kī to bhī
māhiyyat-e-aslī ko apnī na zarā jaanā
kyā yaar kī bad-ḳhūī kyā ġhair kī bad-ḳhvāhī
sarmāya-e-sad-āfat hai dil hī kā aa jaanā
kuchh arz-e-tamannā meñ shikva na sitam kā thā
maiñ ne to kahā kyā thā aur aap ne kyā jaanā
ik shab na use laa.e kuchh rañg na dikhlā.e
ik shor-e-qayāmat hī nāloñ ne uThā jaanā
chilman kā ulaT jaanā zāhir kā bahāna hai
un ko to bahar-sūrat ik jalva dikhā jaanā
hai haq ba-taraf us ke chāhe sau sitam kar le
us ne dil-e-āshiq ko majbūr-e-vafā jaanā
anjām huā apnā āġhāz-e-mohabbat meñ
is shaġhl ko jāñ-farsā aisā to na thā jaanā
'majrūh' hue maa.il kis āfat-e-daurāñ par
ai hazrat-e-man tum ne dil bhī na lagā jaanā
ghairon ko bhala samjhe aur mujh ko bura jaana
samjhe bhi to kya samjhe jaana bhi to kya jaana
ek umr ke dukh pae sote hain faraghat se
ai ghalghala-e-mahshar hum ko na jaga jaana
mangun to sahi bosa par kya hai ilaj is ka
yan honT ka hil jaana wan baat ka pa jaana
go umr basar us ki tahqiq mein ki to bhi
mahiyyat-e-asli ko apni na zara jaana
kya yar ki bad-KHui kya ghair ki bad-KHwahi
sarmaya-e-sad-afat hai dil hi ka aa jaana
kuchh arz-e-tamanna mein shikwa na sitam ka tha
main ne to kaha kya tha aur aap ne kya jaana
ek shab na use lae kuchh rang na dikhlae
ek shor-e-qayamat hi nalon ne uTha jaana
chilman ka ulaT jaana zahir ka bahana hai
un ko to bahar-surat ek jalwa dikha jaana
hai haq ba-taraf us ke chahe sau sitam kar le
us ne dil-e-ashiq ko majbur-e-wafa jaana
anjam hua apna aaghaz-e-mohabbat mein
is shaghl ko jaan-farsa aisa to na tha jaana
'majruh' hue mail kis aafat-e-dauran par
ai hazrat-e-man tum ne dil bhi na laga jaana
