pahle wo qaid-e-marg se mujhko riha kare
pahle vo qaid-e-marg se mujh ko rihā kare
phir ho to bevafā.ī kā be-shak gila kare
ab kashmakash ke bojh kī tāqat nahīñ rahī
ab dil meñ koī aas na jaage ḳhudā kare
ho sham.a to batā.e ki jalte haiñ kis tarah
jugnū bhī mar ga.e hoñ to parvāna kyā kare
vo hukm de rahe haiñ magar sochte nahīñ
kis tarah koī dil ko jigar se judā kare
vo mushta.il ki zid kī bhī hai intihā koī
ham muntazir ki aaj magar ibtidā kare
andar kā baaġh jis kā badal jaa.e dasht meñ
vo shaḳhs tere phuul se chehre ko kyā kare
ḳhairāt bhī milī na jahāñ se tamām umr
'aḳhtar' vahīñ pe aaj bhī baiThā duā kare
pahle wo qaid-e-marg se mujh ko riha kare
phir ho to bewafai ka be-shak gila kare
ab kashmakash ke bojh ki taqat nahin rahi
ab dil mein koi aas na jage KHuda kare
ho shama to batae ki jalte hain kis tarah
jugnu bhi mar gae hon to parwana kya kare
wo hukm de rahe hain magar sochte nahin
kis tarah koi dil ko jigar se juda kare
wo mushtail ki zid ki bhi hai intiha koi
hum muntazir ki aaj magar ibtida kare
andar ka bagh jis ka badal jae dasht mein
wo shaKHs tere phul se chehre ko kya kare
KHairaat bhi mili na jahan se tamam umr
'aKHtar' wahin pe aaj bhi baiTha dua kare
