zaKHmon ki aur chhaalon ki bhi anjuman rahe
zaḳhmoñ kī aur chhāloñ kī bhī anjuman rahe
talvoñ meñ nok-e-ḳhār-e-safar kī chubhan rahe
ye kyā huā ki chaar qadam chal ke mil ga.ī
manzil mile to paañv meñ kuchh to thakan rahe
dushman kā koī tiir na aaya hamārī samt
jab tak saroñ se bāñdhe hue ham kafan rahe
zindoñ ke jism ke liye rakh do na.e libās
mere badan pe koī purānā kafan rahe
nikle jo tiir jism se mahsūs hī na ho
banda ḳhudā ke sāmne aisā magan rahe
maz.hab pe harf aa.e to lāzim hai ehtijāj
lekin is ehtijāj meñ shā.ista-pan rahe
īmāñ pe baat aa.ī to sochā nahīñ kabhī
tan se judā ho sar ki ye baaqī badan rahe
duniyā-e-nā-tarāsh ko is se ġharaz nahīñ
dāman pe koī daaġh lage yā shikan rahe
TukḌoñ meñ aur firqoñ meñ baTne lagā vatan
kis ko pata hai kal ko ye kaisā vatan rahe
sho.arā-o-sāma.īn kī bhī bazm-e-sher meñ
'ahsan' ye aarzū hai koī gul-badan rahe
zaKHmon ki aur chhaalon ki bhi anjuman rahe
talwon mein nok-e-KHar-e-safar ki chubhan rahe
ye kya hua ki chaar qadam chal ke mil gai
manzil mile to panw mein kuchh to thakan rahe
dushman ka koi tir na aaya hamari samt
jab tak saron se bandhe hue hum kafan rahe
zindon ke jism ke liye rakh do nae libas
mere badan pe koi purana kafan rahe
nikle jo tir jism se mahsus hi na ho
banda KHuda ke samne aisa magan rahe
mazhab pe harf aae to lazim hai ehtijaj
lekin is ehtijaj mein shaista-pan rahe
iman pe baat aai to socha nahin kabhi
tan se juda ho sar ki ye baqi badan rahe
duniya-e-na-tarash ko is se gharaz nahin
daman pe koi dagh lage ya shikan rahe
TukDon mein aur firqon mein baTne laga watan
kis ko pata hai kal ko ye kaisa watan rahe
shoara-o-samain ki bhi bazm-e-sher mein
'ahsan' ye aarzu hai koi gul-badan rahe
