mere madd-e-muqabil tir KHanjar aur bhaale hain

mire madd-e-muqābil tiir ḳhanjar aur bhāle haiñ

magar aise ka.ī bhāle mire dil ne sambhāle haiñ

muqayyad dā.era-dar-dā.era hai zindagī merī

mire har chāñd ke chāroñ taraf tārīk haale haiñ

kaTe kī zindagī kaise musalsal jabr meñ rah kar

safar sahrā kā hai aur paañv meñ chhāle hī chhāle haiñ

bhulā saktā huuñ kaise vaar jo siine pe khaa.e haiñ

ki us ke zaḳhm bhī aulād kī mānind paale haiñ

haqīqat to ye hai har ahd ke kirdār yaksāñ haiñ

vahī suqrāt hai aur zahr se labrez pyāle haiñ

mire ghar meñ hai kyā rakkhā tirī ḳhidmat-guzārī ko

ki mere paas to mehmān-e-jāñ ġham ke nivāle haiñ

baḌhūñ aage ki pīchhe lauT jā.ūñ ai 'suhail'-amjad

mire pīchhe haiñ gahrī khā.iyāñ aage himāle haiñ

mere madd-e-muqabil tir KHanjar aur bhaale hain

magar aise kai bhaale mere dil ne sambhaale hain

muqayyad daera-dar-daera hai zindagi meri

mere har chand ke chaaron taraf tarik haale hain

kaTe ki zindagi kaise musalsal jabr mein rah kar

safar sahra ka hai aur panw mein chhaale hi chhaale hain

bhula sakta hun kaise war jo sine pe khae hain

ki us ke zaKHm bhi aulad ki manind pale hain

haqiqat to ye hai har ahd ke kirdar yaksan hain

wahi suqraat hai aur zahr se labrez pyale hain

mere ghar mein hai kya rakkha teri KHidmat-guzari ko

ki mere pas to mehman-e-jaan gham ke niwale hain

baDhun aage ki pichhe lauT jaun ai 'suhail'-amjad

mere pichhe hain gahri khaiyan aage himale hain
