main kaise manun mohabbat nahin hai shairi hai
maiñ kaise mānūñ mohabbat nahīñ hai shā'irī hai
ki shā'irāna tabī'at nahīñ hai shā'irī hai
‘atā-e-rabb-e-suḳhan hai ki she'r kahte haiñ
hamārā mas.ala shohrat nahīñ hai shā'irī hai
ḳhudī bachā.e hue haiñ qalam kī tāqat se
ki aur koī bhī daulat nahīñ hai shā'irī hai
har ik sipāhī kā hotā hai morcha apnā
badan meñ laḌne kī himmat nahīñ hai shā'irī hai
bigaḌtā kyoñ hai tirī nazr she'r hī to kiyā
tirī tavajjoh kī rishvat nahīñ hai shā'irī hai
mushā'ire meñ na pī shā'iroñ kī daad kā haq
ye mīThe rang kā sharbat nahīñ hai shā'irī hai
tū apne kaam se duniyā pe raaj kar 'shāhid'
tumhāre haath hukūmat nahīñ hai shā'irī hai
main kaise manun mohabbat nahin hai sha'iri hai
ki sha'irana tabi'at nahin hai sha'iri hai
‘ata-e-rabb-e-suKHan hai ki she'r kahte hain
hamara masala shohrat nahin hai sha'iri hai
KHudi bachae hue hain qalam ki taqat se
ki aur koi bhi daulat nahin hai sha'iri hai
har ek sipahi ka hota hai morcha apna
badan mein laDne ki himmat nahin hai sha'iri hai
bigaDta kyon hai teri nazr she'r hi to kiya
teri tawajjoh ki rishwat nahin hai sha'iri hai
musha'ire mein na pi sha'iron ki dad ka haq
ye miThe rang ka sharbat nahin hai sha'iri hai
tu apne kaam se duniya pe raj kar 'shahid'
tumhaare hath hukumat nahin hai sha'iri hai
