tum agar chaho kabhi biphra samundar dekhna
tum agar chāho kabhī biphrā samundar dekhnā
chaudhvīñ meñ tum mirī āñkhoñ kā manzar dekhnā
jo havāle se mire mahfil meñ pahchāne ga.e
zikr par mere unhī logoñ ke tevar dekhnā
zaḳhm gin kar kyā karoge kār-e-jāñ-sozī hai ye
jo paḌe hoñge abhī raste meñ patthar dekhnā
log kahte haiñ ki tum patthar ho insāñ to nahīñ
ab to majbūrān paḌegā tum ko chhū kar dekhnā
aaj tak bhī maslahat-koshī hameñ aa.ī nahīñ
hai yahī to ek ḳhāmī apne andar dekhnā
us ko ab ham zulm samjheñ yā ki ġham-ḳhvārī tirī
ḳhud rulānā aur phir hamdard ban kar dekhnā
ye na ho ki nā-mukammal hī rahe manzil kā ḳhvāb
tez-raftārī meñ lag jaatī hai Thokar dekhnā
jab khaḌe hoñge ye sab fir.aun mulzim kī tarah
vo adālat jo lagegī roz-e-mahshar dekhnā
tum agar chaho kabhi biphra samundar dekhna
chaudhwin mein tum meri aankhon ka manzar dekhna
jo hawale se mere mahfil mein pahchane gae
zikr par mere unhi logon ke tewar dekhna
zaKHm gin kar kya karoge kar-e-jaan-sozi hai ye
jo paDe honge abhi raste mein patthar dekhna
log kahte hain ki tum patthar ho insan to nahin
ab to majburan paDega tum ko chhu kar dekhna
aaj tak bhi maslahat-koshi hamein aai nahin
hai yahi to ek KHami apne andar dekhna
us ko ab hum zulm samjhen ya ki gham-KHwari teri
KHud rulana aur phir hamdard ban kar dekhna
ye na ho ki na-mukammal hi rahe manzil ka KHwab
tez-raftari mein lag jati hai Thokar dekhna
jab khaDe honge ye sab firaun mulzim ki tarah
wo adalat jo lagegi roz-e-mahshar dekhna
