hai wahimon ka tamasha yahan wahan dekho
hai vāhimoñ kā tamāshā yahāñ vahāñ dekho
hamāre paas mukammal ḳhudā kahāñ dekho
dil-o-dimāġh ke andar anā kī guuñj suno
balā sī koī lahū meñ ravāñ-davāñ dekho
nafas kā saañp kahāñ zer hone vaalā hai
phir is ke ba.ad koī aur imtihāñ dekho
ab apne ghar ke liye ik na.ī zamīñ socho
zamīñ ke sar pe koī taaza āsmāñ dekho
is ik savāl ke kitne azaab jhel chukā
kuchh aur dard banū aur imtihāñ dekho
guzar ke jaanā hai vahshat ke ek dariyā se
yaqīñ na ho to yahāñ rāsta kahāñ dekho
kahāñ se aa.egī ab raushnī mohabbat kī
bahut dhuāñ hai makānoñ ke darmiyāñ dekho
maiñ be-yaqīn huuñ aisā ki mere hāthoñ meñ
tamām āyateñ sūraj kī rā.egāñ dekho
phaTā huā kisī uryāñ savāl jaisā hai
hamāre sar pe ye rahmat kā sā.ebāñ dekho
nishān ret ke aa.e haiñ mere hisse meñ
nikal gayā hai bahut duur kārvāñ dekho
masīh maut kā paiġhām le ke aayā hai
ab aur kaun bachā.egā merī jaañ dekho
mire hurūf adhūrī uḌaan jaise haiñ
mirā shu.ūr ma.ānī kā āsmāñ dekho
vo ek lamha hayāt-āshnā likho 'ahmad'
vagarna saarī kahānī hī rā.egāñ dekho
hai wahimon ka tamasha yahan wahan dekho
hamare pas mukammal KHuda kahan dekho
dil-o-dimagh ke andar ana ki gunj suno
bala si koi lahu mein rawan-dawan dekho
nafas ka sanp kahan zer hone wala hai
phir is ke baad koi aur imtihan dekho
ab apne ghar ke liye ek nai zamin socho
zamin ke sar pe koi taza aasman dekho
is ek sawal ke kitne azab jhel chuka
kuchh aur dard banu aur imtihan dekho
guzar ke jaana hai wahshat ke ek dariya se
yaqin na ho to yahan rasta kahan dekho
kahan se aaegi ab raushni mohabbat ki
bahut dhuan hai makanon ke darmiyan dekho
main be-yaqin hun aisa ki mere hathon mein
tamam aayaten suraj ki raegan dekho
phaTa hua kisi uryan sawal jaisa hai
hamare sar pe ye rahmat ka saeban dekho
nishan ret ke aae hain mere hisse mein
nikal gaya hai bahut dur karwan dekho
masih maut ka paigham le ke aaya hai
ab aur kaun bachaega meri jaan dekho
mere huruf adhuri uDan jaise hain
mera shuur maani ka aasman dekho
wo ek lamha hayat-ashna likho 'ahmad'
wagarna sari kahani hi raegan dekho
