zarf se baDh ke ho itna nahin manga jata
zarf se baḌh ke ho itnā nahīñ māñgā jaatā
pyaas lagtī hai to dariyā nahīñ māñgā jaatā
chāñd jaisī bhī ho beTī kisī muflisī kī to
ūñche ghar vāloñ se rishta nahīñ māñgā jaatā
dostī kar ke havā se jo jalā deñ ghar ko
un charāġhoñ se ujālā nahīñ māñgā jaatā
apne kamzor buzurgoñ kā sahārā mat lo
sūkhe peḌoñ se to saaya nahīñ māñgā jaatā
peT bharte haiñ jo māñge hue TukḌe khā kar
un ke hāthoñ se nivāla nahīñ māñgā jaatā
bhiik bhī māñgo to tahzīb kā kaasa le kar
haath phailā ke ḳhazāna nahīñ māñgā jaatā
hai ibādat ke liye shart aqīdat 'dānā'
bandagī ke liye sajda nahīñ māñgā jaatā
zarf se baDh ke ho itna nahin manga jata
pyas lagti hai to dariya nahin manga jata
chand jaisi bhi ho beTi kisi muflisi ki to
unche ghar walon se rishta nahin manga jata
dosti kar ke hawa se jo jala den ghar ko
un charaghon se ujala nahin manga jata
apne kamzor buzurgon ka sahaara mat lo
sukhe peDon se to saya nahin manga jata
peT bharte hain jo mange hue TukDe kha kar
un ke hathon se niwala nahin manga jata
bhik bhi mango to tahzib ka kasa le kar
hath phaila ke KHazana nahin manga jata
hai ibaadat ke liye shart aqidat 'dana'
bandagi ke liye sajda nahin manga jata
