kis se hun dad-KHwah koi dadras nahin
kis se huuñ dād-ḳhvāh koī dādras nahīñ
vo kushtanī huuñ maiñ ki kisī ko taras nahīñ
zāhid kisī visāl-e-sanam kī havas nahīñ
patthar kā but hai tū ki tujhe hiss-o-mas nahīñ
vo nā-tavāñ huuñ ki mire dil ko hai yaqīñ
āñdhī kī jhoñke chalte haiñ bād-e-nafas nahīñ
jab tak ki tum na aaoge ragḌūñgā eḌiyāñ
maiñ bhī huuñ saḳht-jān jo tum ko taras nahīñ
zabt-e-fuġhāñ se uzv-e-badan ghul chale tamām
maiñ kārvān-e-reg-e-ravāñ huuñ jaras nahīñ
duniyā kī ne.amatoñ se ye serī hai ruuh ko
bosa bhī yaar de to kahūñ maiñ havas nahīñ
kuchh to hamārī rone meñ taḳhfīf ho ga.ī
bārish jo agle saal thī ab kī baras nahīñ
parvānā-o-charāġh par aatā hai mujh ko rashk
kis tarah tum se uḌ ke lipaT jā.ūñ bas nahīñ
ai shahsavār us kā chamaknā dalīl hai
āhū-e-ḳhāvarī hai ye terā faras nahīñ
ham mai-kashoñ kī bazm meñ hai be-takallufī
kuchh dānā-hā-e-sub.ha-sifat pesh-o-pas nahīñ
betābiyāñ yahī haiñ to ik din najāt hai
sayyād yā to maiñ hī nahīñ yā qafas nahīñ
apne liye hai marg guloñ kī mafāriqat
hai gumbad-e-mazār hamārā qafas nahīñ
ai 'bahr' is maqām par aTkā hai jā ke dil
pā-e-ḳhayāl kī bhī jahāñ dastaras nahīñ
kis se hun dad-KHwah koi dadras nahin
wo kushtani hun main ki kisi ko taras nahin
zahid kisi visal-e-sanam ki hawas nahin
patthar ka but hai tu ki tujhe hiss-o-mas nahin
wo na-tawan hun ki mere dil ko hai yaqin
aandhi ki jhonke chalte hain baad-e-nafas nahin
jab tak ki tum na aaoge ragDunga eDiyan
main bhi hun saKHt-jaan jo tum ko taras nahin
zabt-e-fughan se uzw-e-badan ghul chale tamam
main karwan-e-reg-e-rawan hun jaras nahin
duniya ki neamaton se ye seri hai ruh ko
bosa bhi yar de to kahun main hawas nahin
kuchh to hamari rone mein taKHfif ho gai
barish jo agle sal thi ab ki baras nahin
parwana-o-charagh par aata hai mujh ko rashk
kis tarah tum se uD ke lipaT jaun bas nahin
ai shahsawar us ka chamakna dalil hai
aahu-e-KHawari hai ye tera faras nahin
hum mai-kashon ki bazm mein hai be-takallufi
kuchh dana-ha-e-subha-sifat pesh-o-pas nahin
betabiyan yahi hain to ek din najat hai
sayyaad ya to main hi nahin ya qafas nahin
apne liye hai marg gulon ki mafariqat
hai gumbad-e-mazar hamara qafas nahin
ai 'bahr' is maqam par aTka hai ja ke dil
pa-e-KHayal ki bhi jahan dastaras nahin
