nahin shauq-e-KHaridari mein dauDe ja raha hai
nahīñ shauq-e-ḳharīdārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
ye gāhak sair-e-bāzārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
mayassar kuchh nahīñ hai khel meñ lā-hāsilī ke
yūñhī be-kār bekārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
uThā.e phir rahā hai kotvāl-e-umr chābuk
badan majbūr lāchārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
khaḌī hai manfa.at hairān bāhar dā.ere se
ziyāñ apnī ziyāñ-kārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
Thaharnā bhī kahāñ hai sahl in sayyārgāñ ko
na sābit se hī sayyārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
utārā ḳhvāhishoñ kā hai izāfī bojh sar se
to āsānī se dushvārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
nahīñ himmat ki jis meñ ho zamāne ke muqābil
vo apne ghar kī rahdārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
nahīñ miltā magar rauzan ki nikle 'aks bāhar
pas-e-ā.īna-zañgārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
sameTā jhuuT kī parkār ne hai pesh-o-pas ko
ki ab har sach riyā-kārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
ḳhabar hai rut badalne kī agar rashk-e-sabā vo
ḳhirām-andāz gulzārī meñ dauḌe jā rahā hai
nahin shauq-e-KHaridari mein dauDe ja raha hai
ye gahak sair-e-bazari mein dauDe ja raha hai
mayassar kuchh nahin hai khel mein la-hasili ke
yunhi be-kar bekari mein dauDe ja raha hai
uThae phir raha hai kotwal-e-umr chabuk
badan majbur lachaari mein dauDe ja raha hai
khaDi hai manfat hairan bahar daere se
ziyan apni ziyan-kari mein dauDe ja raha hai
Thaharna bhi kahan hai sahl in sayyargan ko
na sabit se hi sayyari mein dauDe ja raha hai
utara KHwahishon ka hai izafi bojh sar se
to aasani se dushwari mein dauDe ja raha hai
nahin himmat ki jis mein ho zamane ke muqabil
wo apne ghar ki rahdari mein dauDe ja raha hai
nahin milta magar rauzan ki nikle 'aks bahar
pas-e-aina-zangari mein dauDe ja raha hai
sameTa jhuT ki parkar ne hai pesh-o-pas ko
ki ab har sach riya-kari mein dauDe ja raha hai
KHabar hai rut badalne ki agar rashk-e-saba wo
KHiram-andaz gulzari mein dauDe ja raha hai
