na-tawani mein bhi wo kirdar hona chahiye
nā-tavānī meñ bhī vo kirdār honā chāhiye
apne hī kāñdhe pe apnā baar honā chāhiye
ye ḳhayāl aane lagā hai kis tavaqqo par tumheñ
raah meñ har peḌ sāya-dār honā chāhiye
shahr bhar meñ saḳht jaanī ke liye mash.hūr huuñ
merī ḳhātir ik na ik āzār honā chāhiye
merā dushman duur tak koī nahīñ mere sivā
aur dushman se mujhe hoshiyār honā chāhiye
ye subuk-sārān-e-sāhil kis qadar haiñ mutma.in
in ke aage bhī koī mañjhdār honā chāhiye
phuul kī pattī se bhī nāzuk hai kuchh dil kā mizāj
log kahte haiñ mujhe talvār honā chāhiye
maut ke aaseb se 'raunaq' abas Darte haiñ log
zindagī bhar zindagī se pyaar honā chāhiye
na-tawani mein bhi wo kirdar hona chahiye
apne hi kandhe pe apna bar hona chahiye
ye KHayal aane laga hai kis tawaqqo par tumhein
rah mein har peD saya-dar hona chahiye
shahr bhar mein saKHt jaani ke liye mashhur hun
meri KHatir ek na ek aazar hona chahiye
mera dushman dur tak koi nahin mere siwa
aur dushman se mujhe hoshiyar hona chahiye
ye subuk-saran-e-sahil kis qadar hain mutmain
in ke aage bhi koi manjhdar hona chahiye
phul ki patti se bhi nazuk hai kuchh dil ka mizaj
log kahte hain mujhe talwar hona chahiye
maut ke aaseb se 'raunaq' abas Darte hain log
zindagi bhar zindagi se pyar hona chahiye
