maston pe ungliyan na uThao bahaar mein
mastoñ pe uñgliyāñ na uThāo bahār meñ
dekho to hosh hai bhī kisī hoshyār meñ
kuchh mohtasib kā ḳhauf hai kuchh shaiḳh kā lihāz
piitā huuñ chhup ke dāman-e-abr-e-bahār meñ
vo sāmne dharī hai surāhī bharī huī
donoñ jahāñ haiñ aaj mire iḳhtiyār meñ
allāh baat kyā hai ki dīvāngī mirī
dīvāngī nahīñ nazar-e-hoshiyār meñ
jhūTī tasalliyoñ se na bahlāo jaao jaao
jaao ki tum nahīñ ho mire iḳhtiyār meñ
huuñ vādī-e-hayāt meñ is tarah sust-e-gām
jaise ho pā-shikasta koī ḳhār-zār meñ
ab vo sukūn-e-yās na vo iztirāb-e-shauq
siine meñ dil hai yā koī lāsha mazār meñ
ab ḳhaak uḌā.iye na hamāre mazār kī
ab ḳhaak bhī nahīñ hai hamāre mazār meñ
tanhā.ī-e-firāq meñ ummīd bār-hā
gum ho ga.ī sukūt ke hañgāma-zār meñ
vo andalīb-e-gulshan-e-ma.anī huuñ maiñ 'hafīz'
soz-e-suḳhan se aag lagā duuñ bahār meñ
maston pe ungliyan na uThao bahaar mein
dekho to hosh hai bhi kisi hoshyar mein
kuchh mohtasib ka KHauf hai kuchh shaiKH ka lihaz
pita hun chhup ke daman-e-abr-e-bahaar mein
wo samne dhari hai surahi bhari hui
donon jahan hain aaj mere iKHtiyar mein
allah baat kya hai ki diwangi meri
diwangi nahin nazar-e-hoshiyar mein
jhuTi tasalliyon se na bahlao jao jao
jao ki tum nahin ho mere iKHtiyar mein
hun wadi-e-hayat mein is tarah sust-e-gam
jaise ho pa-shikasta koi KHar-zar mein
ab wo sukun-e-yas na wo iztirab-e-shauq
sine mein dil hai ya koi lasha mazar mein
ab KHak uDaiye na hamare mazar ki
ab KHak bhi nahin hai hamare mazar mein
tanhai-e-firaq mein ummid bar-ha
gum ho gai sukut ke hangama-zar mein
wo andalib-e-gulshan-e-mani hun main 'hafiz'
soz-e-suKHan se aag laga dun bahaar mein
