jo hum anjam par apni nazar ai baghban karte
jo ham anjām par apnī nazar ai bāġhbāñ karte
chaman meñ aag de dete qafas ko āshiyāñ karte
ajal kambaḳht aatī hai nahīñ dar par tire varna
ham aisī maut par bhī zindagānī kā gumāñ karte
sahī ifshā-e-rāz-e-ishq lekin ye musībat hai
na karte sajda tere dar par āḳhir to kahāñ karte
hameñ dair-o-haram meñ qaid rakkhā bad-nasībī ne
jahāñ sajde kī gunjā.ish na thī sajda vahāñ karte
uḌā laatī havā jo kuchh ḳhas-o-ḳhāshāk-e-zindāñ meñ
unhīñ tinkoñ pe ham apne nasheman kā gumāñ karte
ye ai fikr-e-rihā.ī kis balā meñ ham ko lā Daalā
qafas meñ dahke āzādī se zikr-e-āshiyāñ karte
jo hum anjam par apni nazar ai baghban karte
chaman mein aag de dete qafas ko aashiyan karte
ajal kambaKHt aati hai nahin dar par tere warna
hum aisi maut par bhi zindagani ka guman karte
sahi ifsha-e-raaz-e-ishq lekin ye musibat hai
na karte sajda tere dar par aaKHir to kahan karte
hamein dair-o-haram mein qaid rakkha bad-nasibi ne
jahan sajde ki gunjaish na thi sajda wahan karte
uDa lati hawa jo kuchh KHas-o-KHashak-e-zindan mein
unhin tinkon pe hum apne nasheman ka guman karte
ye ai fikr-e-rihai kis bala mein hum ko la Dala
qafas mein dahke aazadi se zikr-e-ashiyan karte
