majbur to bahut hain mohabbat mein ji se hum
majbūr to bahut haiñ mohabbat meñ jī se ham
ye aur baat hai na kaheñ kuchh kisī se ham
ik shaam ham-suḳhan the chaman meñ kalī se ham
yādash-ba-ḳhair phir na mile zindagī se ham
allāh re vo vaqt vo majbūrī-e-hayāt
ro ro ke ho rahe the judā jab kisī se ham
taklīf-e-iltifāt na kar ai nigāh-e-nāz
ab mutma.in haiñ apne ġham-e-zindagī se ham
haiñ yaad us nazar kī taġhāful-shi.āriyāñ
bā-vasf-e-irtibāt bhī the ajnabī se ham
baḌhtī hī jā rahī haiñ abas bad-gumāniyāñ
nā-āshnā nahīñ haiñ tirī barhamī se ham
ek ik adā-e-husn-e-gurezāñ nazar meñ hai
pāmāl ho rahe haiñ baḌī be-ruḳhī se ham
har-sū hai ek ālam-e-vahshat shab-e-firāq
ghabrā rahe haiñ silsila-e-tīrgī se ham
ġhārat kiyā hai jis ne hamārā sukūn-e-dil
'muztar' sukūn-e-dil ke haiñ ḳhvāhāñ usī se ham
majbur to bahut hain mohabbat mein ji se hum
ye aur baat hai na kahen kuchh kisi se hum
ek sham ham-suKHan the chaman mein kali se hum
yaadash-ba-KHair phir na mile zindagi se hum
allah re wo waqt wo majburi-e-hayat
ro ro ke ho rahe the juda jab kisi se hum
taklif-e-iltifat na kar ai nigah-e-naz
ab mutmain hain apne gham-e-zindagi se hum
hain yaad us nazar ki taghaful-shiariyan
ba-wasf-e-irtibaat bhi the ajnabi se hum
baDhti hi ja rahi hain abas bad-gumaniyan
na-ashna nahin hain teri barhami se hum
ek ek ada-e-husn-e-gurezan nazar mein hai
pamal ho rahe hain baDi be-ruKHi se hum
har-su hai ek aalam-e-wahshat shab-e-firaq
ghabra rahe hain silsila-e-tirgi se hum
ghaarat kiya hai jis ne hamara sukun-e-dil
'muztar' sukun-e-dil ke hain KHwahan usi se hum
