maqsad-e-husn hai kya chashm-e-basirat ke siwa
maqsad-e-husn hai kyā chashm-e-basīrat ke sivā
vaj.h-e-taḳhlīq-e-bashar kyā hai mohabbat ke sivā
ḳhūn-e-dil thūkte phirte haiñ jahāñ meñ shā.ir
kyā milā shahr-e-suḳhan meñ unheñ shohrat ke sivā
aaj bhī ilm-o-fan-o-sher-o-adab haiñ pāmāl
bā-kamāloñ ko milā kuchh na ihānat ke sivā
haath meñ jin ke ḳhushāmad kā hai gadlā kashkol
un ko e.azāz bhī mil jā.eñge izzat ke sivā
raat din rañj hai is baat kā sab ko ḳhāliq
arsa-e-hashr meñ kyā laa.eñ nadāmat ke sivā
ye mashīnoñ kī chakā-chauñd ye daur-e-ālāt
is meñ har chiiz muqaddar hai muravvat ke sivā
ġhota-zan ham rahe kasrat ke samundar meñ fuzūl
kaun ye pyaas bujhā.e tirī vahdat ke sivā
kyā zamāne meñ diyā tū ne aqīdat kā ma.aal
ham ko ranj-o-ġham-o-andoh-o-musībat ke sivā
ham jo apnā.eñ zamāne meñ tavakkul yārab
baab khul jā.eñge ham par tirī rahmat ke sivā
jab utartī hoñ sar-e-arsh se āyāt-e-junūñ
kaun ho ḳhāliq-e-ash.ār mashiyyat ke sivā
kitne hātim mile 'gulzār' zamāne meñ hameñ
vo ki har chiiz ke vāsif the saḳhāvat ke sivā
maqsad-e-husn hai kya chashm-e-basirat ke siwa
wajh-e-taKHliq-e-bashar kya hai mohabbat ke siwa
KHun-e-dil thukte phirte hain jahan mein shair
kya mila shahr-e-suKHan mein unhen shohrat ke siwa
aaj bhi ilm-o-fan-o-sher-o-adab hain pamal
ba-kamalon ko mila kuchh na ihanat ke siwa
hath mein jin ke KHushamad ka hai gadla kashkol
un ko eazaz bhi mil jaenge izzat ke siwa
raat din ranj hai is baat ka sab ko KHaliq
arsa-e-hashr mein kya laen nadamat ke siwa
ye mashinon ki chaka-chaund ye daur-e-alat
is mein har chiz muqaddar hai murawwat ke siwa
ghota-zan hum rahe kasrat ke samundar mein fuzul
kaun ye pyas bujhae teri wahdat ke siwa
kya zamane mein diya tu ne aqidat ka maal
hum ko ranj-o-gham-o-andoh-o-musibat ke siwa
hum jo apnaen zamane mein tawakkul yarab
bab khul jaenge hum par teri rahmat ke siwa
jab utarti hon sar-e-arsh se aayat-e-junun
kaun ho KHaliq-e-ashaar mashiyyat ke siwa
kitne hatim mile 'gulzar' zamane mein hamein
wo ki har chiz ke wasif the saKHawat ke siwa
