ye numaish ye tamashe nahin achchhe lagte
ye numā.ish ye tamāshe nahīñ achchhe lagte
hoñ masā.il to nazāre nahīñ achchhe lagte
surḳh lab surma.ī āñkheñ ye sañvarnā sajnā
muflisī meñ ye dikhāve nahīñ achchhe lagte
tū mujhe bhuuk bhī sah lene kā aadī kar de
ab mahājan ke taqāze nahīñ achchhe lagte
merī ġhurbat ne mujhe baḳhshā añdheroñ kā mizāj
varna kis ko ye ujāle nahīñ achchhe lagte
ye to sach hai ki vo iḳhlās se miltā hai bahut
phir bhī kuchh us ke irāde nahīñ achchhe lagte
rut badalte hī har ik zehn badal jaatā hai
dhuup ko rokte saa.e nahīñ achchhe lagte
yahī behtar hai kamāñ nasl-e-javāñ ko de do
būḌhe hāthoñ se nishāne nahīñ achchhe lagte
merī sadiyoñ kā bharam TuuT chukā hai 'shahzar'
ab ye hañste hue lamhe nahīñ achchhe lagte
ye numaish ye tamashe nahin achchhe lagte
hon masail to nazare nahin achchhe lagte
surKH lab surmai aankhen ye sanwarna sajna
muflisi mein ye dikhawe nahin achchhe lagte
tu mujhe bhuk bhi sah lene ka aadi kar de
ab mahajan ke taqaze nahin achchhe lagte
meri ghurbat ne mujhe baKHsha andheron ka mizaj
warna kis ko ye ujale nahin achchhe lagte
ye to sach hai ki wo iKHlas se milta hai bahut
phir bhi kuchh us ke irade nahin achchhe lagte
rut badalte hi har ek zehn badal jata hai
dhup ko rokte sae nahin achchhe lagte
yahi behtar hai kaman nasl-e-jawan ko de do
buDhe hathon se nishane nahin achchhe lagte
meri sadiyon ka bharam TuT chuka hai 'shahzar'
ab ye hanste hue lamhe nahin achchhe lagte
