wo zimmedari kitni KHushi se nibhai thi
vo zimmedārī kitnī ḳhushī se nibhā.ī thī
us ko sarā.ī kī zabāñ maiñ ne sikhā.ī thī
maiñ ne jahāñ pe pyaas ko sairāb kar diyā
dariyā kī ek lahr mire haath aa.ī thī
jañg-e-arab meñ chhoḌ ga.e jab himāyatī
kuufa ke ik javāñ ne mirī jaañ bachā.ī thī
aurat se bahs karnā samajhtā thā bas hatak
aur nazriyātī laḌkī bhī dil meñ basā.ī thī
īmān kā hisāb bhī rakhnā paḌā hameñ
zaatī bhalā.ī meñ hī ḳhudā kī bhalā.ī thī
vaadī meñ har-sū ugne lage pāniyoñ ke phuul
chashme pe koī husn-bharī aa nahā.ī thī
maiñ ne chune haiñ apnī hī marzī ke chand phuul
varna to mere hisse meñ puurī ḳhudā.ī thī
shāyad ki ek raat ke ba.ad aur raat ho
sapne meñ ik judā.ī ke ba.ad aur judā.ī thī
wo zimmedari kitni KHushi se nibhai thi
us ko sarai ki zaban main ne sikhai thi
main ne jahan pe pyas ko sairab kar diya
dariya ki ek lahr mere hath aai thi
jang-e-arab mein chhoD gae jab himayati
kufa ke ek jawan ne meri jaan bachai thi
aurat se bahs karna samajhta tha bas hatak
aur nazriyati laDki bhi dil mein basai thi
iman ka hisab bhi rakhna paDa hamein
zati bhalai mein hi KHuda ki bhalai thi
wadi mein har-su ugne lage paniyon ke phul
chashme pe koi husn-bhari aa nahai thi
main ne chune hain apni hi marzi ke chand phul
warna to mere hisse mein puri KHudai thi
shayad ki ek raat ke baad aur raat ho
sapne mein ek judai ke baad aur judai thi
