jo log dida-o-dil ko tabah dekhte hain
jo log dīda-o-dil ko tabāh dekhte haiñ
makīn ḳhvāb ke aane kī raah dekhte haiñ
hameñ ab aañkh ke manzar kā e'tibār nahīñ
so ham ab aks nahīñ bas nigāh dekhte haiñ
ye kaisī aag lagātā hai āftāb ki ham
zamīn-o-arsh ko hote siyāh dekhte haiñ
tum apnī zaat se koī mutālba na karo
ham apne-āp se kar ke nibāh dekhte haiñ
havā ne shahr kā naqsha badal diyā shāyad
ġhubār-e-rāh meñ ham sair-gāh dekhte haiñ
barā.e-nām hai bas merā muhtamim honā
ki intizām to sab sarbarāh dekhte haiñ
maiñ sāf-go huuñ magar be-zabān lagtā huuñ
ye kis tarah se mujhe sab gavāh dekhte haiñ
kareñge ham bhī kabhī farq mīThe khāre meñ
abhī to aab kī ḳhvāhish meñ chaah dekhte haiñ
nikal ke narġha-e-qahar-o-azāb se 'rāhat'
sab apne vāste jā-e-panāh dekhte haiñ
jo log dida-o-dil ko tabah dekhte hain
makin KHwab ke aane ki rah dekhte hain
hamein ab aankh ke manzar ka e'tibar nahin
so hum ab aks nahin bas nigah dekhte hain
ye kaisi aag lagata hai aaftab ki hum
zamin-o-arsh ko hote siyah dekhte hain
tum apni zat se koi mutalba na karo
hum apne-ap se kar ke nibah dekhte hain
hawa ne shahr ka naqsha badal diya shayad
ghubar-e-rah mein hum sair-gah dekhte hain
barae-nam hai bas mera muhtamim hona
ki intizam to sab sarbarah dekhte hain
main saf-go hun magar be-zaban lagta hun
ye kis tarah se mujhe sab gawah dekhte hain
karenge hum bhi kabhi farq miThe khaare mein
abhi to aab ki KHwahish mein chah dekhte hain
nikal ke nargha-e-qahar-o-azab se 'rahat'
sab apne waste ja-e-panah dekhte hain
