saqi ke nam-lewa maiKHane rah gae hain
saaqī ke nām-levā maiḳhāne rah ga.e haiñ
mai-ḳhānoñ meñ bhī ḳhālī paimāne rah ga.e haiñ
be-maqsad-e-junūñ haiñ majnūñ jo dasht meñ haiñ
lailā nahīñ rahī hai dīvāne rah ga.e haiñ
ban kar jo ik haqīqat duniyā pe chhā ga.e the
duniyā meñ aaj un ke afsāne rah ga.e haiñ
mahfil rahe tumhārī mahfil meñ tum raho ab
vo kyā raheñ jo ho kar begāne rah ga.e haiñ
pahchānñā ab un ko dushvār ho gayā hai
jo log apne jāne-pahchāne rah ga.e haiñ
qabroñ meñ sone vaalo tum ko pukārte haiñ
ishrat-kade jo ban kar ġham-ḳhāne rah ga.e haiñ
dekh ai nigāh-e-ibrat āsār-e-ahd-e-māzī
ābādiyoñ ke ho kar vīrāne rah ga.e haiñ
ai gosh-e-ibrat un ko tū sun sake to sun le
ye kuchh haqīqatoñ ke afsāne rah ga.e haiñ
ai sham-e-sub.h-e-mahfil un ko jalā ke bujhnā
do-chār aur tere parvāne rah ga.e haiñ
dīvānoñ ko jo 'bismil' badnām kar rahe haiñ
dīvānoñ meñ abhī kuchh farzāne rah ga.e haiñ
saqi ke nam-lewa maiKHane rah gae hain
mai-KHanon mein bhi KHali paimane rah gae hain
be-maqsad-e-junun hain majnun jo dasht mein hain
laila nahin rahi hai diwane rah gae hain
ban kar jo ek haqiqat duniya pe chha gae the
duniya mein aaj un ke afsane rah gae hain
mahfil rahe tumhaari mahfil mein tum raho ab
wo kya rahen jo ho kar begane rah gae hain
pahchanna ab un ko dushwar ho gaya hai
jo log apne jaane-pahchane rah gae hain
qabron mein sone walo tum ko pukarte hain
ishrat-kade jo ban kar gham-KHane rah gae hain
dekh ai nigah-e-ibrat aasar-e-ahd-e-mazi
aabaadiyon ke ho kar virane rah gae hain
ai gosh-e-ibrat un ko tu sun sake to sun le
ye kuchh haqiqaton ke afsane rah gae hain
ai sham-e-subh-e-mahfil un ko jala ke bujhna
do-chaar aur tere parwane rah gae hain
diwanon ko jo 'bismil' badnam kar rahe hain
diwanon mein abhi kuchh farzane rah gae hain
