    na the shā.ir kuchh baḌe ġhālib

    dil-lagī meñ bhī ḳhuub the ġhālib

    ḳhuub hañste hañsāte rahte the

    baḌī pur-lutf baat kahte the

    aam un ko pasand the behad

    ya.anī rasiyā the aam ke behad

    ḳhud bhī bāzār se mañgāte the

    dost bhī aam un ko bhijvāte

    phir bhī aamoñ se na bhartā thā

    aam shauq un ko itnā thā

    un ke qisse tumheñ sunā.eñ ham

    un bātoñ se kuchh hañsā.eñ ham

    ek mahfil meñ vo bhī baiThe the

    log aamoñ zikr karte the

    aam aisā ho aam vaisā ho

    pūchhā ġhālib se aam kaisā ho

    bole ġhālib ki pūchhte ho agar

    sirf do ḳhūbiyoñ pe rakhiye nazar

    baat pahlī ye hai ki mīThā ho

    dūsrī baat ye bahut ho

    ek din dost un ke ghar aa.e

    aam ġhālib ne the bahut khaa.e

    sāmne ghar ke the paḌe chhilke

    us galī meñ se kuchh gadhe guzre

    un gadhoñ ne na chhilke vo khaa.e

    sūñgh kar un ko baḌh ga.e aage

    dost ne jab ye mājrā dekhā

    sochā ġhālib ko ab hai samjhānā

    dost bole hai shai burī aam

    dekho khāte nahīñ gad.he bhī aam

    hañs ke ġhālib ye dost se bole

    haañ be-shak gad.he nahīñ khāte

    bādshah kar rahe the sair-e-bāġh

    ḳhush thā aamoñ se un qalb-o-dimāġh

    bādshah ke the saath ġhālib bhī

    Dālte the nazar vo lalchā.ī

    meñ ye thā ki ḳhuub khā.eñ aam

    bādshah se jo aaj paa.eñ aam

    ghūrte the jo ġhālib aamoñ ko

    bādshah bole ghūrte kyā ho

    bādshah se ye bole vo hañs kar

    muhr hotī hai daane daane par

    dekhtā huuñ yuuñ ghuur kar maiñ aam

    shāyad un par likhā ho merā naam

    maqsad un jo bādshah paa.e

    phir bahut aam un ko bhijvā.e

    na the shair hi kuchh baDe ghaalib

    dil-lagi mein bhi KHub the ghaalib

    KHub hanste hansate rahte the

    baDi pur-lutf baat kahte the

    aam un ko pasand the behad

    yani rasiya the aam ke behad

    KHud bhi bazar se mangate the

    dost bhi aam un ko bhijwate

    phir bhi aamon se ji na bharta tha

    aam ka shauq un ko itna tha

    un ke qisse tumhein sunaen hum

    un ki baaton se kuchh hansaen hum

    ek mahfil mein wo bhi baiThe the

    log aamon ka zikr karte the

    aam aisa ho aam waisa ho

    puchha ghaalib se aam kaisa ho

    bole ghaalib ki puchhte ho agar

    sirf do KHubiyon pe rakhiye nazar

    baat pahli ye hai ki miTha ho

    dusri baat ye bahut sa ho

    ek din dost un ke ghar aae

    aam ghaalib ne the bahut khae

    samne ghar ke the paDe chhilke

    us gali mein se kuchh gadhe guzre

    un gadhon ne na chhilke wo khae

    sungh kar un ko baDh gae aage

    dost ne jab ye majra dekha

    socha ghaalib ko ab hai samjhana

    dost bole hai shai buri si aam

    dekho khate nahin gadhe bhi aam

    hans ke ghaalib ye dost se bole

    ji han be-shak gadhe nahin khate

    baadshah kar rahe the sair-e-bagh

    KHush tha aamon se un ka qalb-o-dimagh

    baadshah ke the sath ghaalib bhi

    Dalte the nazar wo lalchai

    ji mein ye tha ki KHub khaen aam

    baadshah se jo aaj paen aam

    ghurte the jo ghaalib aamon ko

    baadshah bole ghurte kya ho

    baadshah se ye bole wo hans kar

    muhr hoti hai dane dane par

    dekhta hun yun ghur kar main aam

    shayad un par likha ho mera nam

    maqsad un ka jo baadshah pae

    phir bahut aam un ko bhijwae
