karam ke nam pe un ka itab chahte hain
karam ke naam pe un kā itaab chāhte haiñ
nigāh-e-shauq ko ham kāmyāb chāhte haiñ
sukūn-e-dil meñ ġham-o-iztirāb chāhte haiñ
ham aise log bhī kyā inqalāb chāhte haiñ
chaman meñ ahd-e-bahārāñ kī aarzū kar ke
qafas-nasīb qafas par azaab chāhte haiñ
ye āzmā.ish-e-qalb-o-nazar ma.āz-allāh
tumhāre jalve ko ham be-naqāb chāhte haiñ
mujhe raqīb samajh kar jo mere mohsin haiñ
mirī nazar kā hasīñ intiḳhāb chāhte haiñ
jahāñ ḳhulūs-e-tijārat ke fan meñ Dhal jaa.e
ham aisī duniyā se ab ijtināb chāhte haiñ
ye ahl-e-husn kī fitrat ajiib fitrat hai
savāl karne se pahle javāb chāhte haiñ
karam ke nam pe un ka itab chahte hain
nigah-e-shauq ko hum kaamyab chahte hain
sukun-e-dil mein gham-o-iztirab chahte hain
hum aise log bhi kya inqalab chahte hain
chaman mein ahd-e-bahaaran ki aarzu kar ke
qafas-nasib qafas par azab chahte hain
ye aazmaish-e-qalb-o-nazar maaz-allah
tumhaare jalwe ko hum be-naqab chahte hain
mujhe raqib samajh kar jo mere mohsin hain
meri nazar ka hasin intiKHab chahte hain
jahan KHulus-e-tijarat ke fan mein Dhal jae
hum aisi duniya se ab ijtinab chahte hain
ye ahl-e-husn ki fitrat ajib fitrat hai
sawal karne se pahle jawab chahte hain
