hasrat-e-did nahin zauq-e-tamasha bhi nahin
hasrat-e-dīd nahīñ zauq-e-tamāshā bhī nahīñ
kaash patthar hoñ nigāheñ magar aisā bhī nahīñ
jabr-e-dozaḳh nahīñ firdaus kā nashsha bhī nahīñ
ḳhush haiñ a.arāf meñ ham aur koī khaTkā bhī nahīñ
ab kisī huur meñ baaqī nahīñ ehsās-e-kashish
mere sar par kisī aaseb kā saaya bhī nahīñ
vo to aisā bhī hai vaisā bhī hai kaisā hai magar?
kyā ġhazab hai koī us shoḳh ke jaisā bhī nahīñ
jis kā haq thā ki bane sañg-e-malāmat kā hadaf
zahe taz.hīk vo ab shahr meñ rusvā bhī nahīñ
DhūñDh kuchh aur hī iblāġh kī sūrat ai 'sāz'
sharh o tafsīr nahīñ ramz o kināya bhī nahīñ
hasrat-e-did nahin zauq-e-tamasha bhi nahin
kash patthar hon nigahen magar aisa bhi nahin
jabr-e-dozaKH nahin firdaus ka nashsha bhi nahin
KHush hain aaraf mein hum aur koi khaTka bhi nahin
ab kisi hur mein baqi nahin ehsas-e-kashish
mere sar par kisi aaseb ka saya bhi nahin
wo to aisa bhi hai waisa bhi hai kaisa hai magar?
kya ghazab hai koi us shoKH ke jaisa bhi nahin
jis ka haq tha ki bane sang-e-malamat ka hadaf
zahe tazhik wo ab shahr mein ruswa bhi nahin
DhunDh kuchh aur hi iblagh ki surat ai 'saz'
sharh o tafsir nahin ramz o kinaya bhi nahin
