meri biwi qabr mein leTi hai jis hangam se
merī biivī qabr meñ leTī hai jis hañgām se
vo bhī hai ārām se aur maiñ bhī huuñ ārām se
kis tarah guzrān hogī ab super aqvām se
māñgtī haiñ daam bhī vo banda-e-be-dām se
ghoḌe nikle uuñT nikle motareñ niklīñ magar
ek bhī aalim na niklā ālam-e-islām se
phir vo jeneral election meñ bhī hogā kāmyāb
vo jo hai mārūf gul-ghoTū ke urf-e-ām se
jaise sach kuchh bhī nahīñ jaise ḳhudā koī nahīñ
kis qadar ummīdeñ vābasta haiñ uncle-sām se
jaane kyā paivand-e-ādam se ye ab paidā kareñ
aam aur amrūd paidā kar liyā bādām se
diin to bachtā nazar aatā nahīñ newyork meñ
zulf hī apnī bachā le jā.iye hajjām se
sher kā hissa agar alfāz par rakkhā gayā
khelnā hai jaam se aur vo bhī ḳhālī jaam se
ek hī paiġhām hai merā javānān-e-azīz
naam paao ilm se ārām paao kaam se
husn nature kī atā azmat samar tahzīb kā
munfarid hai misr apne niil aur ahrām se
gar siyāsat meñ rahīñ aisī hī ḳhar-bāzāriyāñ
parliamenteñ ḳharīdī jā.eñgī nīlām se
meri biwi qabr mein leTi hai jis hangam se
wo bhi hai aaram se aur main bhi hun aaram se
kis tarah guzran hogi ab super aqwam se
mangti hain dam bhi wo banda-e-be-dam se
ghoDe nikle unT nikle motaren niklin magar
ek bhi aalim na nikla aalam-e-islam se
phir wo jeneral election mein bhi hoga kaamyab
wo jo hai maruf gul-ghoTu ke urf-e-am se
jaise sach kuchh bhi nahin jaise KHuda koi nahin
kis qadar ummiden wabasta hain uncle-sam se
jaane kya paiwand-e-adam se ye ab paida karen
aam aur amrud paida kar liya baadam se
din to bachta nazar aata nahin newyork mein
zulf hi apni bacha le jaiye hajjam se
sher ka hissa agar alfaz par rakkha gaya
khelna hai jam se aur wo bhi KHali jam se
ek hi paigham hai mera jawanan-e-aziz
nam pao ilm se aaram pao kaam se
husn nature ki ata azmat samar tahzib ka
munfarid hai misr apne nil aur ahram se
gar siyasat mein rahin aisi hi KHar-bazariyan
parliamenten KHaridi jaengi nilam se
