sikh liya jina maine
siikh liyā jiinā maiñ ne
itnā zahr piyā maiñ ne
shikva nahīñ kiyā maiñ ne
aañsū poñchh liyā maiñ ne
un se mil kar aayā huuñ
ḳhvāb nahīñ dekhā maiñ ne
havā ko aate jab dekhā
raushan kiyā diyā maiñ ne
pyāsā thā kartā bhī kyā
likh Daalā dariyā maiñ ne
parcham sā lahrāyā huuñ
khaa.ī tez havā maiñ ne
husn-e-chaman likhtā kaise
paḌhā na ik pattā maiñ ne
dīvāroñ kī bastī meñ
darvāza likkhā maiñ ne
paash paash huā phir bhī
sar ūñchā rakkhā maiñ ne
kisī ko kyā denā 'hashmī'
qarz hī kiye adā maiñ ne
sikh liya jina main ne
itna zahr piya main ne
shikwa nahin kiya main ne
aansu ponchh liya main ne
un se mil kar aaya hun
KHwab nahin dekha main ne
hawa ko aate jab dekha
raushan kiya diya main ne
pyasa tha karta bhi kya
likh Dala dariya main ne
parcham sa lahraya hun
khai tez hawa main ne
husn-e-chaman likhta kaise
paDha na ek patta main ne
diwaron ki basti mein
darwaza likkha main ne
pash pash hua phir bhi
sar uncha rakkha main ne
kisi ko kya dena 'hashmi'
qarz hi kiye ada main ne
