karta hai wo jafa to kare main wafa karun
kartā hai vo jafā to kare maiñ vafā karūñ
yuuñ apnī dostī kā farīza adā karūñ
us kā shi.ār vo hai ye merā shi.ār hai
us kī jafā ke naam maiñ apnī vafā karūñ
us kā kabhī javāb na aayā na aa.egā
ye jānte hue bhī use ḳhat likhā karūñ
va.ade pe us ke aane ke ghar ko sajā liyā
ab us ke ba.ad bhī na vo aa.e to kyā karūñ
ik lamha merī samt ko vo multafit to ho
vo hāl-e-dil sune to bayāñ mudda.ā karūñ
kī us ne har qadam pe jafāoñ kī intihā
maiñ bhī na kyuuñ vafāoñ kī phir intihā karūñ
jis ne mirī hayāt ko tārīk kar diyā
phir bhī maiñ us kī raah meñ raushan diyā karūñ
vo hai jo mere qatl kā sāmāñ kiye hue
merā nahīñ shi.ār ki maiñ bad-duā karūñ
ġhālib kī ye zamīn hai 'shā.eq' ḳhudā-gavāh
kyuuñ kar maiñ is zamīn kā rutba sivā karūñ
karta hai wo jafa to kare main wafa karun
yun apni dosti ka fariza ada karun
us ka shiar wo hai ye mera shiar hai
us ki jafa ke nam main apni wafa karun
us ka kabhi jawab na aaya na aaega
ye jaante hue bhi use KHat likha karun
wade pe us ke aane ke ghar ko saja liya
ab us ke baad bhi na wo aae to kya karun
ek lamha meri samt ko wo multafit to ho
wo haal-e-dil sune to bayan muddaa karun
ki us ne har qadam pe jafaon ki intiha
main bhi na kyun wafaon ki phir intiha karun
jis ne meri hayat ko tarik kar diya
phir bhi main us ki rah mein raushan diya karun
wo hai jo mere qatl ka saman kiye hue
mera nahin shiar ki main bad-dua karun
ghaalib ki ye zamin hai 'shaeq' KHuda-gawah
kyun kar main is zamin ka rutba siwa karun
