rahe ham āshiyāñ meñ bhī to barq-e-āshiyāñ ho kar
lagā dī aag apne ghar meñ sargarm-e-fuġhāñ ho kar
na apne ġham-zadoñ ko ḳhush karo ab mehrbāñ ho kar
buto tum ḳhush raho ham kyā kareñge shādmāñ ho kar
khile ġhunche na bū phūTī na shāḳh-e-gul phalī-phūlī
qafas meñ jab se ham aa.e bahār aa.ī ḳhizāñ ho kar
chale ho gul-badāmāñ kuchh to kahte jaao un se bhī
ki tum se kah rahe haiñ kuchh anādil ham-zabāñ ho kar
javāñ hone na paa.e the ki dil aayā hasīnoñ par
ajal ye kahtī aa.ī kyā karoge tum javāñ ho kar
hue past aise un kī ḳhaak bhī uḌte nahīñ dekhī
rahe rahne ko kitne is zamīñ par āsmāñ ho kar
jo khul kar vaar muusā par to ham par choT parde meñ
vahī jalva ayaañ ho kar vahī jalva nihāñ ho kar
qayāmat un kī chheḌeñ haiñ mire betāb karne ko
jo nāvak aa.e chuTkī se to un kī chuTkiyāñ ho kar
milāyā ḳhaak ho kar hasratoñ ko apnī miTTī meñ
chhupāyā kārvāñ ko ham ne gard-e-kārvāñ ho kar
kabhī taqrīr-e-sāqī meñ jo laġhzish us ne paa.ī hai
to mauj-e-mai ne ham se guftugū kī hai zabāñ ho kar
ye rañgīñ nāra-e-mastāna kis ke haiñ are zāhid
sadā nāqūs kī de dī kahīñ gūñjī azaañ ho kar
tire kūche meñ piisā hai usī ne ham ġharīboñ ko
girā hai sāya-e-dīvār ham par āsmāñ ho kar
kisī mahram sambhālegī na dohrā.e hue āñchal
raheñge vo na qaabū meñ kisī ke bhī javāñ ho kar
dakan meñ kyā vazīr-e-fauj ne mehmāñ navāzī kī
janāb-e-'shād' ke dar se phire ham shādmāñ ho kar
'riyāz' is vaz.a se pahuñche ki bole mai-kade vaale
buzurg-e-ḳhizr-sūrat aa.e jannat meñ javāñ ho kar
rahe hum aashiyan mein bhi to barq-e-ashiyan ho kar
laga di aag apne ghar mein sargarm-e-fughan ho kar
na apne gham-zadon ko KHush karo ab mehrban ho kar
buto tum KHush raho hum kya karenge shadman ho kar
khile ghunche na bu phuTi na shaKH-e-gul phali-phuli
qafas mein jab se hum aae bahaar aai KHizan ho kar
chale ho gul-badaman kuchh to kahte jao un se bhi
ki tum se kah rahe hain kuchh anadil ham-zaban ho kar
jawan hone na pae the ki dil aaya hasinon par
ajal ye kahti aai kya karoge tum jawan ho kar
hue past aise un ki KHak bhi uDte nahin dekhi
rahe rahne ko kitne is zamin par aasman ho kar
jo khul kar war musa par to hum par choT parde mein
wahi jalwa ayan ho kar wahi jalwa nihan ho kar
qayamat un ki chheDen hain mere betab karne ko
jo nawak aae chuTki se to un ki chuTkiyan ho kar
milaya KHak ho kar hasraton ko apni miTTi mein
chhupaya karwan ko hum ne gard-e-karwan ho kar
kabhi taqrir-e-saqi mein jo laghzish us ne pai hai
to mauj-e-mai ne hum se guftugu ki hai zaban ho kar
ye rangin nara-e-mastana kis ke hain are zahid
sada naqus ki de di kahin gunji azan ho kar
tere kuche mein pisa hai usi ne hum gharibon ko
gira hai saya-e-diwar hum par aasman ho kar
kisi mahram sambhaalegi na dohrae hue aanchal
rahenge wo na qabu mein kisi ke bhi jawan ho kar
dakan mein kya wazir-e-fauj ne mehman nawazi ki
janab-e-'shad' ke dar se phire hum shadman ho kar
'riyaz' is waza se pahunche ki bole mai-kade wale
buzurg-e-KHizr-surat aae jannat mein jawan ho kar
