haq-o-nahaq jalana ho kisi ko to jala dena
haq-o-nāhaq jalānā ho kisī ko to jalā denā
koī ro.e tumhāre sāmne tum muskurā denā
taraddud barq-rezoñ meñ tumheñ karne kī kyā hājat
tumheñ kaafī hai hañstā dekh lenā muskurā denā
diloñ par bijliyāñ girne kī sūrat gar koī pūchhe
to maiñ kah duuñ tumhārā dekh lenā muskurā denā
huī bijlī se kis din naql andāz-e-sitamgārī
tumhārī tarah sīkhā laakh us ne muskurā denā
sitamgārī kī tālīmeñ unheñ dī haiñ ye kah kah kar
ki rotā jis kisī ko dekh lenā muskurā denā
takalluf-bar-taraf kyuuñ phuul le kar aao turbat par
magar jab fātiha ko haath uThānā muskurā denā
na kyuuñ ham inqilāb-e-dahr ko māneñ agar dekheñ
guloñ kā naala karnā bulbuloñ kā muskurā denā
na jaanā nā-tavānī par ki ab bhī sa.ī-e-nāḳhun se
dikhā sakte haiñ ham zaḳhm-e-kuhan kā muskurā denā
tumhāre naam meñ kyā za.afarāñ kī shāḳh hai 'sā.il'
ki jo suntā hai is ko us ko sun kar muskurā denā
haq-o-nahaq jalana ho kisi ko to jala dena
koi roe tumhaare samne tum muskura dena
taraddud barq-rezon mein tumhein karne ki kya hajat
tumhein kafi hai hansta dekh lena muskura dena
dilon par bijliyan girne ki surat gar koi puchhe
to main kah dun tumhaara dekh lena muskura dena
hui bijli se kis din naql andaz-e-sitamgari
tumhaari tarah sikha lakh us ne muskura dena
sitamgari ki talimen unhen di hain ye kah kah kar
ki rota jis kisi ko dekh lena muskura dena
takalluf-bar-taraf kyun phul le kar aao turbat par
magar jab fatiha ko hath uThana muskura dena
na kyun hum inqilab-e-dahr ko manen agar dekhen
gulon ka nala karna bulbulon ka muskura dena
na jaana na-tawani par ki ab bhi sai-e-naKHun se
dikha sakte hain hum zaKHm-e-kuhan ka muskura dena
tumhaare nam mein kya zafaran ki shaKH hai 'sail'
ki jo sunta hai is ko us ko sun kar muskura dena
