jahan hai maktab-e-hasti sabaq hai chup rahna
jahāñ hai maktab-e-hastī sabaq hai chup rahnā
baḌā gunāh yahāñ hai alif se be kahnā
shab-e-firāq meñ saa.e se Dar ke kahtā huuñ
ajī ye raat Darānī hai jāgte rahnā
chaman meñ phuul khile baaġh meñ bahār aa.ī
urūs-e-dahr ne goyā pahan liyā gahnā
hamārī āh-o-bakā se hai jism-e-shauq qavī
ye haath bāyāñ hai apnā vo haath hai dahnā
fuġhān-e-bulbul-e-shaidā na jāniye is ko
bajā rahā hai koī sehn-e-bāġh meñ shahna
ġham-e-firāq meñ ai āsmāñ nahīñ mauqūf
vo jo suhā.eñ mujhe mujh ko har tarah sahnā
nikāl de ki hai aise meñ jū-e-ashk-e-ravāñ
burā hai baat kā ai chashm-e-dil meñ le rahnā
galī meñ yaar kī ho yā kisī ḳharābe meñ
hameñ to hashr ke din tak kahīñ pe mar rahnā
asar bhī 'shād' ke sheroñ meñ hai matānat bhī
ye kohna-mashq haiñ in kī ġhazal kā kyā kahnā
jahan hai maktab-e-hasti sabaq hai chup rahna
baDa gunah yahan hai alif se be kahna
shab-e-firaq mein sae se Dar ke kahta hun
aji ye raat Darani hai jagte rahna
chaman mein phul khile bagh mein bahaar aai
urus-e-dahr ne goya pahan liya gahna
hamari aah-o-baka se hai jism-e-shauq qawi
ye hath bayan hai apna wo hath hai dahna
fughan-e-bulbul-e-shaida na jaaniye is ko
baja raha hai koi sehn-e-bagh mein shahna
gham-e-firaq mein ai aasman nahin mauquf
wo jo suhaen mujhe mujh ko har tarah sahna
nikal de ki hai aise mein ju-e-ashk-e-rawan
bura hai baat ka ai chashm-e-dil mein le rahna
gali mein yar ki ho ya kisi KHarabe mein
hamein to hashr ke din tak kahin pe mar rahna
asar bhi 'shad' ke sheron mein hai matanat bhi
ye kohna-mashq hain in ki ghazal ka kya kahna
