kirdar kah rahe hain kuchh apni zaban mein
kirdār kah rahe haiñ kuchh apnī zabān meñ
kitnī kahāniyāñ haiñ isī dāstān meñ
jab aaj tak na baat mukammal huī koī
ye log bolne lage kyuuñ darmiyān meñ
barsoñ meñ kaT rahā hai yahāñ arsa-e-hayāt
sadiyāñ guzar rahī haiñ kahīñ ek aan meñ
us din ke ba.ad sochnā mahdūd kar diyā
aisā ḳhayāl ek din aayā thā dhyān meñ
hone kī intihā hai vahī aaj tak 'malāl'
jo ibtidā meñ ho gayā is ḳhāk-dān meñ
kirdar kah rahe hain kuchh apni zaban mein
kitni kahaniyan hain isi dastan mein
jab aaj tak na baat mukammal hui koi
ye log bolne lage kyun darmiyan mein
barson mein kaT raha hai yahan arsa-e-hayat
sadiyan guzar rahi hain kahin ek aan mein
us din ke baad sochna mahdud kar diya
aisa KHayal ek din aaya tha dhyan mein
hone ki intiha hai wahi aaj tak 'malal'
jo ibtida mein ho gaya is KHak-dan mein
