kis ke aangan se guzar kar ye hawa aati hai

kis ke āñgan se guzar kar ye havā aatī hai

siskiyāñ letī huī bū-e-hinā aatī hai

kyā kamī hai ki nigāhoñ se gire jaate ho

dil meñ ghar karne kī tum ko to adā aatī hai

dil kī bāteñ mujhe kahnī nahīñ ātīñ lekin

yahī kyā kam hai tirī hamd-o-sanā aatī hai

khā rahī hai tan-e-bīmār ko andar andar

kis masīhā kī dukāñ se ye davā aatī hai

kis jagah ruk ke zarā der ko dam le koī

kahīñ saaya hai shajar kā na sarā aatī hai

ab bahar-gām baḌhī jaatī hai taklīf-e-safar

ab musāfir ko bahut yād-e-ḳhudā aatī hai

muddatoñ sang musībat kī ragaḌ khātā hai

tab kahīñ ā.ina-e-dil meñ jilā aatī hai

ek hammām meñ goyā ki sabhī nange haiñ

sharm aatī hai na duniyā ko hayā aatī hai

ab to is kār-gah-e-shīsha-garī meñ 'māhir'

har-nafas taaza chhanāke kī sadā aatī hai

kis ke aangan se guzar kar ye hawa aati hai

siskiyan leti hui bu-e-hina aati hai

kya kami hai ki nigahon se gire jate ho

dil mein ghar karne ki tum ko to ada aati hai

dil ki baaten mujhe kahni nahin aatin lekin

yahi kya kam hai teri hamd-o-sana aati hai

kha rahi hai tan-e-bimar ko andar andar

kis masiha ki dukan se ye dawa aati hai

kis jagah ruk ke zara der ko dam le koi

kahin saya hai shajar ka na sara aati hai

ab bahar-gam baDhi jati hai taklif-e-safar

ab musafir ko bahut yaad-e-KHuda aati hai

muddaton sang musibat ki ragaD khata hai

tab kahin aaina-e-dil mein jila aati hai

ek hammam mein goya ki sabhi nange hain

sharm aati hai na duniya ko haya aati hai

ab to is kar-gah-e-shisha-gari mein 'mahir'

har-nafas taza chhanake ki sada aati hai
