gham mein har lab pe wahi aah-o-buka aati hai
ġham meñ har lab pe vahī āh-o-bukā aatī hai
muḳhtalif saaz haiñ aur ek sadā aatī hai
ho ke zindāñ se jo gulshan kī havā aatī hai
aur dīvānoñ ko dīvāna banā aatī hai
past hotī hai jahāñ ahl-e-dilā kī himmat
us jagah kaam ġharīboñ kī duā aatī hai
mujh se har haal meñ achchhā hai tasavvur merā
kam se kam aap kī tasvīr banā aatī hai
jab jafāoñ se paḌā kaam to sab bhuul ga.e
naaz thā ham ko ki ham ko bhī vafā aatī hai
dil hai yā sāz-e-shikasta hai na jaane kyā hai
ek se ek ḳhush-ā.ind sadā aatī hai
fursat itnī nahīñ miltī ki kabhī ġhaur kareñ
varna har dard kī ḳhud ham ko davā aatī hai
jām-e-sarshār idhar hai maiñ huuñ tauba hai udhar
aur idhar ka.abe se ik mast ghaTā aatī hai
din nikaltā hai to aatī hai mujhe raat kī yaad
raat aatī hai to ik taaza balā aatī hai
is taraf pā-e-shikasta meñ nahīñ tāb-e-safar
us taraf kaan meñ āvāz-e-darā aatī hai
dil meñ jo aag bhaḌaktī hai bujhātī hai vo aañkh
ḳhuub donoñ ko lagā aur bujhā aatī hai
aap gumrāh hai 'shaukat' mirī vahshat lekin
rāsta bhūlne vāloñ ko batā aatī hai
gham mein har lab pe wahi aah-o-buka aati hai
muKHtalif saz hain aur ek sada aati hai
ho ke zindan se jo gulshan ki hawa aati hai
aur diwanon ko diwana bana aati hai
past hoti hai jahan ahl-e-dila ki himmat
us jagah kaam gharibon ki dua aati hai
mujh se har haal mein achchha hai tasawwur mera
kam se kam aap ki taswir bana aati hai
jab jafaon se paDa kaam to sab bhul gae
naz tha hum ko ki hum ko bhi wafa aati hai
dil hai ya saz-e-shikasta hai na jaane kya hai
ek se ek KHush-aind sada aati hai
fursat itni nahin milti ki kabhi ghaur karen
warna har dard ki KHud hum ko dawa aati hai
jam-e-sarshaar idhar hai main hun tauba hai udhar
aur idhar kabe se ek mast ghaTa aati hai
din nikalta hai to aati hai mujhe raat ki yaad
raat aati hai to ek taza bala aati hai
is taraf pa-e-shikasta mein nahin tab-e-safar
us taraf kan mein aawaz-e-dara aati hai
dil mein jo aag bhaDakti hai bujhati hai wo aankh
KHub donon ko laga aur bujha aati hai
aap gumrah hai 'shaukat' meri wahshat lekin
rasta bhulne walon ko bata aati hai
