hasrato ab phir wahi taqrib hona chahiye
hasrato ab phir vahī taqrīb honā chāhiye
phir kisī din baiTh kar fursat se ronā chāhiye
jāgte rahiye kahāñ tak uljhanoñ ke naam par
vaqt haath aa.e to gahrī niiñd sonā chāhiye
kyā ḳhabar kab qaid-e-bām-o-dar se uktā jaa.e dil
bastiyoñ ke darmiyāñ sahrā bhī honā chāhiye
gum-rahī jin rāstoñ par mujh ko bahlātī rahī
mujh se ab vo rāste mansūb honā chāhiye
jaane kyā soche zamāna un ke ashkoñ par 'shamīm'
haañ na tum ko tanz ke nashtar chubhonā chāhiye
hasrato ab phir wahi taqrib hona chahiye
phir kisi din baiTh kar fursat se rona chahiye
jagte rahiye kahan tak uljhanon ke nam par
waqt hath aae to gahri nind sona chahiye
kya KHabar kab qaid-e-baam-o-dar se ukta jae dil
bastiyon ke darmiyan sahra bhi hona chahiye
gum-rahi jin raston par mujh ko bahlati rahi
mujh se ab wo raste mansub hona chahiye
jaane kya soche zamana un ke ashkon par 'shamim'
han na tum ko tanz ke nashtar chubhona chahiye
