havā ko aur bhī kuchh tez kar ga.e haiñ log
charāġh le ke na jaane kidhar ga.e haiñ log
safar ke shauq meñ itne azaab jhele haiñ
ki ab to qasd-e-safar hī se Dar ga.e haiñ log
dhuāñ dhuāñ nazar aatī haiñ shahr kī galiyāñ
sunā hai aaj sar-e-shām ghar ga.e haiñ log
jahāñ se nikle haiñ raste musāfiroñ ke liye
makān aise bhī ta.amīr kar ga.e haiñ log
kabhī kabhī to judā.ī kī lazzateñ de kar
rafāqatoñ meñ nayā rañg bhar ga.e haiñ log
malāl-e-tark-e-ta.alluq na jaane kyā hotā
ḳhayāl-e-tark-e-ta.alluq se mar ga.e haiñ log
ġhurūr tund havāoñ kā yuuñ bhī toḌā hai
charāġh haath pe rakh kar guzar ga.e haiñ log
koī javāb nahīñ fikr kī bulandī kā
zamīñ pe rah ke bhī aflāk par ga.e haiñ log
qarīb the to faqat vāsta thā āñkhoñ se
judā hue haiñ to dil meñ utar ga.e haiñ log
vo gesuoñ kī ghaTā ho ki daar kā saaya
jahāñ bhī chhāñv milī hai Thahar ga.e haiñ log
ye aur baat ki ghar bujh ga.e haiñ ai 'shā.er'
magar vatan meñ charāġhāñ to kar ga.e haiñ log
hawa ko aur bhi kuchh tez kar gae hain log
charagh le ke na jaane kidhar gae hain log
safar ke shauq mein itne azab jhele hain
ki ab to qasd-e-safar hi se Dar gae hain log
dhuan dhuan nazar aati hain shahr ki galiyan
suna hai aaj sar-e-sham ghar gae hain log
jahan se nikle hain raste musafiron ke liye
makan aise bhi tamir kar gae hain log
kabhi kabhi to judai ki lazzaten de kar
rafaqaton mein naya rang bhar gae hain log
malal-e-tark-e-talluq na jaane kya hota
KHayal-e-tark-e-talluq se mar gae hain log
ghurur tund hawaon ka yun bhi toDa hai
charagh hath pe rakh kar guzar gae hain log
koi jawab nahin fikr ki bulandi ka
zamin pe rah ke bhi aflak par gae hain log
qarib the to faqat wasta tha aankhon se
juda hue hain to dil mein utar gae hain log
wo gesuon ki ghaTa ho ki dar ka saya
jahan bhi chhanw mili hai Thahar gae hain log
ye aur baat ki ghar bujh gae hain ai 'shaer'
magar watan mein charaghan to kar gae hain log
