koi nadan na dana achchha

koī nādān na daanā achchhā

aap achchhe to zamānā achchhā

na huā dil kā lagānā achchhā

ġhalatī kī nahīñ jaanā achchhā

aise bigḌoñ kā banānā achchhā

vo jo rūTheñ to manānā achchhā

aa.e haiñ ġhair ko le kar ham-rāh

aise aane se na aanā achchhā

saath hai zer-e-zamīñ tāroñ ke

ye milā us ko ḳhazāna achchhā

ye muqābil hai vo sar chaḌhtā hai

aa.ine se to hai shānā achchhā

mujh se milne meñ bahāne na karo

ḳhuun is se to bahānā achchhā

ai hinā jaate haiñ vo ġhair ke ghar

loT huuñ ḳhāl-e-ruḳh-e-yār pe maiñ

ho jo qismat meñ ye daanā achchhā

bādshah se bhī nahīñ dabte the

thā laḌakpan kā zamānā achchhā

dard ho jis meñ hikāyat hai vo ḳhuub

jo ho rangīñ vo fasānā achchhā

tuur par kaam thā kyā jalve kā

dil meñ āñkhoñ meñ samānā achchhā

yahī ai 'bazm' rahe dil meñ ḳhayāl

koi nadan na dana achchha

aap achchhe to zamana achchha

na hua dil ka lagana achchha

ghalati ki nahin jaana achchha

aise bigDon ka banana achchha

wo jo ruThen to manana achchha

aae hain ghair ko le kar ham-rah

aise aane se na aana achchha

sath hai zer-e-zamin taron ke

ye mila us ko KHazana achchha

ye muqabil hai wo sar chaDhta hai

aaine se to hai shana achchha

mujh se milne mein bahane na karo

KHun is se to bahana achchha

ai hina jate hain wo ghair ke ghar

rang aise mein jamana achchha

loT hun KHal-e-ruKH-e-yar pe main

ho jo qismat mein ye dana achchha

baadshah se bhi nahin dabte the

tha laDakpan ka zamana achchha

dard ho jis mein hikayat hai wo KHub

jo ho rangin wo fasana achchha

tur par kaam tha kya jalwe ka

dil mein aankhon mein samana achchha

yahi ai 'bazm' rahe dil mein KHayal

hum bure sab se zamana achchha
