shujaat ki misalen qabr ke patthar mein rakkhi hain
shujā.at kī misāleñ qabr ke patthar meñ rakkhī haiñ
hamārī saarī shamshīreñ ajā.ib ghar meñ rakkhī haiñ
havā kī dushmanī se hausle TuuTe nahīñ us ke
uḌāneñ to parinde ke shikasta-par meñ rakkhī haiñ
jise chāhe dikhātā hai jise chāhe miTātā hai
ki tasvīreñ sabhī ab dast-e-shīsha-gar meñ rakkhī haiñ
charāġhoñ ke mohalle meñ bahut tezī se chaltī hai
ye kaisī vahshateñ yārab havā ke sar meñ rakkhī haiñ
hamāre ba.ad aane vāloñ ko koī to samjhā.e
ga.e vaqtoñ kī tārīḳheñ har ik patthar meñ rakkhī haiñ
guloñ se qurbateñ sābit faqat ḳhushbū se hotī haiñ
qabā.eñ to sabā kī qabza-e-sarsar meñ rakkhī haiñ
ham apnā sāz-o-sāmāñ le to aa.e haiñ na.e ghar meñ
magar kuchh dastakeñ ab bhī purāne ghar meñ rakkhī haiñ
vo rāh-e-vasl ki paikar nahīñ bīnā.ī chaltī thī
mirī āñkheñ tire dīdār ke manzar meñ rakkhī haiñ
shujaat ki misalen qabr ke patthar mein rakkhi hain
hamari sari shamshiren ajaib ghar mein rakkhi hain
hawa ki dushmani se hausle TuTe nahin us ke
uDanen to parinde ke shikasta-par mein rakkhi hain
jise chahe dikhata hai jise chahe miTata hai
ki taswiren sabhi ab dast-e-shisha-gar mein rakkhi hain
charaghon ke mohalle mein bahut tezi se chalti hai
ye kaisi wahshaten yarab hawa ke sar mein rakkhi hain
hamare baad aane walon ko koi to samjhae
gae waqton ki tariKHen har ek patthar mein rakkhi hain
gulon se qurbaten sabit faqat KHushbu se hoti hain
qabaen to saba ki qabza-e-sarsar mein rakkhi hain
hum apna saz-o-saman le to aae hain nae ghar mein
magar kuchh dastaken ab bhi purane ghar mein rakkhi hain
wo rah-e-wasl ki paikar nahin binai chalti thi
meri aankhen tere didar ke manzar mein rakkhi hain
