mashaqqat ki tapish mein jism ka loha galate hain
mashaqqat kī tapish meñ jism kā lohā galāte haiñ
baḌī mushkil se is miTTī ko ham sonā banāte haiñ
taraste haiñ kahīñ kuchh log roTī ke nivāloñ ko
kahīñ har shaam shahzāde sharāboñ meñ nahāte haiñ
kabhī sūkhe hue peḌoñ kā vo mātam nahīñ karte
hoñ jin ke zehn ta.amīrī na.e paude lagāte haiñ
ḳhudāyā rahm in ma.asūm bachchoñ ke laḌakpan par
jinheñ kāġhaz siyah karne the vo kāġhaz uThāte haiñ
bahut aañsū rulā.e haiñ hameñ taqsīm-e-gulshan ne
muhājir vo samajhte haiñ to ye bāġhī batāte haiñ
maiñ apne zarf se baḌh kar agar kuchh maañg letā huuñ
to phir ehsās ke sho.ale sukūñ merā jalāte haiñ
musībat koī aa jaa.e kisī par is zamāne meñ
to phir kyā ġhair kyā apne sabhī dāman bachāte haiñ
mashaqqat ki tapish mein jism ka loha galate hain
baDi mushkil se is miTTi ko hum sona banate hain
taraste hain kahin kuchh log roTi ke niwalon ko
kahin har sham shahzade sharabon mein nahate hain
kabhi sukhe hue peDon ka wo matam nahin karte
hon jin ke zehn tamiri nae paude lagate hain
KHudaya rahm in masum bachchon ke laDakpan par
jinhen kaghaz siyah karne the wo kaghaz uThate hain
bahut aansu rulae hain hamein taqsim-e-gulshan ne
muhajir wo samajhte hain to ye baghi batate hain
main apne zarf se baDh kar agar kuchh mang leta hun
to phir ehsas ke shoale sukun mera jalate hain
musibat koi aa jae kisi par is zamane mein
to phir kya ghair kya apne sabhi daman bachate hain
