    ham āj-kal haiñ nāma-navīsī taav par

    din-bhar kabūtaroñ ko bhagāte haiñ baav par

    rindoñ ko ek roz to dariyā-dilī dikhā

    kashtī-e-mai ko chhoḌ de saaqī bahāo par

    likkhūñ vo sher-e-āriz-e-rañgīñ vasf-bīñ

    taḳhta chaman sadqe hoñ kāġhaz naav par

    kuchh hājat-e-kabāb nahīñ kaif-e-ishq meñ

    sīḳheñ dil-o-jigar lagīñ haiñ alaav par

    be-minnat-e-jahān-e-tunuk-zarf agar mile

    vallāh phir to charb hai ḳhashā pulāv par

    qaane muñh se ne.mat-e-duniyā ḳhafīf hai

    bhārī hai paav naan mire naan paav par

    āfat-nishāñ haiñ dīda-e-fattāñ putliyāñ

    tash.hīr sāmrī ko kareñge ye gaav par

    bāzīcha-gāh-e-ishq meñ vo huuñ qimār-bāz

    donoñ jahān rakh diye haiñ ek daav par

    kyuuñ kar barātiyoñ se na ghūñghaT kare dulhan

    saarī sabhā miTī hai tumhāre banāv par

    gul-gasht havas chamanistāñ aarzū

    ai be-qarāriyo mire dil ko lagāv par

    kartā huuñ maiñ jo marham-e-kāfūr talāsh

    kartī hai chāñdnī mirī siine ke ghaav par

    kashtī-e-mai lagī rahī saaqī laboñ ke ghaaT

    ham mai-kashoñ qāfila hai chal-chalāv par

    maiñ jal meñ aa gayā vo na aayā fareb meñ

    maiñ zad pe chaḌh gayā vo na Therā lagāv par

    parvāne tarah na bujhā de charāġh-e-husn

    tūtī-e-ḳhat ke ātish-e-ruḳh se jalāo par

    ilm-e-safīna us ko tujhe ilm-e-sīna 'bahr'

    pul par aur shaiḳh hai kāġhaz naav par

    hum aaj-kal hain nama-nawisi ki taw par

    din-bhar kabutaron ko bhagate hain baw par

    rindon ko ek roz to dariya-dili dikha

    kashti-e-mai ko chhoD de saqi bahao par

    likkhun wo sher-e-ariz-e-rangin ki wasf-bin

    taKHta chaman ka sadqe hon kaghaz ki naw par

    kuchh hajat-e-kabab nahin kaif-e-ishq mein

    siKHen dil-o-jigar ki lagin hain alaw par

    be-minnat-e-jahan-e-tunuk-zarf agar mile

    wallah phir to charb hai KHasha pulaw par

    qane ki munh se nemat-e-duniya KHafif hai

    bhaari hai paw nan mere nan paw par

    aafat-nishan hain dida-e-fattan ki putliyan

    tashhir samri ko karenge ye gaw par

    bazicha-gah-e-ishq mein wo hun qimar-baz

    donon jahan rakh diye hain ek daw par

    kyun kar baraatiyon se na ghunghaT kare dulhan

    sari sabha miTi hai tumhaare banaw par

    gul-gasht ki hawas chamanistan ki aarzu

    ai be-qarariyo mere dil ko lagaw par

    karta hun main jo marham-e-kafur ki talash

    karti hai chandni meri sine ke ghaw par

    kashti-e-mai lagi rahi saqi labon ke ghaT

    hum mai-kashon ka qafila hai chal-chalaw par

    main jal mein aa gaya wo na aaya fareb mein

    main zad pe chaDh gaya wo na Thera lagaw par

    parwane ki tarah na bujha de charagh-e-husn

    tuti-e-KHat ke aatish-e-ruKH se jalao par

    ilm-e-safina us ko tujhe ilm-e-sina 'bahr'

    tu pul par aur shaiKH hai kaghaz ki naw par
