zikr mera ba-badi bhi use manzur nahin
zikr merā ba-badī bhī use manzūr nahīñ
ġhair kī baat bigaḌ jaa.e to kuchh duur nahīñ
vada-e-sair-e-gulistāñ hai ḳhushā tāle-e-shauq
muzhda-e-qatl muqaddar hai jo mazkūr nahīñ
shāhid-e-hastī-e-mutlaq kī kamar hai aalam
log kahte haiñ ki hai par hameñ manzūr nahīñ
qatra apnā bhī haqīqat meñ hai dariyā lekin
ham ko taqlīd-e-tunuk-zarfi-e-mansūr nahīñ
hasrat ai zauq-e-ḳharābī ki vo tāqat na rahī
ishq-e-pur-arbada kī guuñ tan-e-ranjūr nahīñ
maiñ jo kahtā huuñ ki ham leñge qayāmat meñ tumheñ
kis ra.ūnat se vo kahte haiñ ki ham huur nahīñ
zulm kar zulm agar lutf dareġh aatā ho
tū taġhāful meñ kisī rañg se ma.azūr nahīñ
saaf durdi-kash-e-paimāna-e-jam haiñ ham log
vaa.e vo baada ki afsharda-e-añgūr nahīñ
huuñ zuhūrī ke muqābil meñ ḳhifā.ī 'ġhālib'
mere da.ave pe ye hujjat hai ki mash.hūr nahīñ
zikr mera ba-badi bhi use manzur nahin
ghair ki baat bigaD jae to kuchh dur nahin
wada-e-sair-e-gulistan hai KHusha tale-e-shauq
muzhda-e-qatl muqaddar hai jo mazkur nahin
shahid-e-hasti-e-mutlaq ki kamar hai aalam
log kahte hain ki hai par hamein manzur nahin
qatra apna bhi haqiqat mein hai dariya lekin
hum ko taqlid-e-tunuk-zarfi-e-mansur nahin
hasrat ai zauq-e-KHarabi ki wo taqat na rahi
ishq-e-pur-arbada ki gun tan-e-ranjur nahin
main jo kahta hun ki hum lenge qayamat mein tumhein
kis raunat se wo kahte hain ki hum hur nahin
zulm kar zulm agar lutf daregh aata ho
tu taghaful mein kisi rang se mazur nahin
saf durdi-kash-e-paimana-e-jam hain hum log
wae wo baada ki afsharda-e-angur nahin
hun zuhuri ke muqabil mein KHifai 'ghaalib'
mere dawe pe ye hujjat hai ki mashhur nahin
