har ek ghar mein diya bhi jale anaj bhi ho
har ek ghar meñ diyā bhī jale anaaj bhī ho
agar na ho kahīñ aisā to ehtijāj bhī ho
rahegī va.adoñ meñ kab tak asiir ḳhush-hālī
har ek baar hī kal kyuuñ kabhī to aaj bhī ho
na karte shor-sharāba to aur kyā karte
tumhāre shahr meñ kuchh aur kām-kāj bhī ho
hukūmatoñ ko badalnā to kuchh muhāl nahīñ
hukūmateñ jo badaltā hai vo samāj bhī ho
badal rahe haiñ ka.ī aadmī darindoñ meñ
maraz purānā hai is kā nayā ilaaj bhī ho
akele ġham se na.ī shā.irī nahīñ hotī
zabān-e-'mīr' meñ 'ġhālib' kā imtizāj bhī ho
har ek ghar mein diya bhi jale anaj bhi ho
agar na ho kahin aisa to ehtijaj bhi ho
rahegi wadon mein kab tak asir KHush-haali
har ek bar hi kal kyun kabhi to aaj bhi ho
na karte shor-sharaba to aur kya karte
tumhaare shahr mein kuchh aur kaam-kaj bhi ho
hukumaton ko badalna to kuchh muhaal nahin
hukumaten jo badalta hai wo samaj bhi ho
badal rahe hain kai aadmi darindon mein
maraz purana hai is ka naya ilaj bhi ho
akele gham se nai shairi nahin hoti
zaban-e-'mir' mein 'ghaalib' ka imtizaj bhi ho
