    maiñ shā.ir huuñ mujhe ahl-e-hunar fankār kahte haiñ

    mujhe ramz-āshnā-e-nik.hat-e-gulzār kahte haiñ

    ḳhulūs-o-uns mujh ko alam-bardār kahte haiñ

    jo baaqī haiñ mujhe ik banda-e-bekār kahte haiñ

    zabūñ-hālī zad meñ hai bayāñ merā zabāñ merī

    nahīñ minnat-kash-e-tāb-e-shunīdan dāstān merī

    jise dekho vahī merī haqīqat se hai begāna

    koī be-ḳhud samajhtā hai koī kahtā hai dīvāna

    sunā.ūñ kis ko kar apnī arzānī afsāna

    yaqīñ kiije mire haq meñ na mister hai na maulānā

    unheñ zid maiñ gulistāñ ko gulistāñ kyuuñ nahīñ kahtā

    harīm-e-dahr meñ insāñ ko insāñ kyuuñ nahīñ kahtā

    har ik bazm-e-suḳhan meñ go mujhe bulvāyā jaatā hai

    jo haiñ be-zauq un ko bhī mujhe sunvāyā jaatā hai

    sitam kyā kyā mirī jān-e-hazīñ par Dhāyā jaatā hai

    faqat ik paan aur kuchh daad par Tarḳhāyā jaatā hai

    mujhe sheroñ ke badle ik nivāla tak nahīñ miltā

    jahāñ chhaptā huuñ mujh ko vo risāla tak nahīñ miltā

    adā-e-dil vahī aur ḳhū-e-dil-dārī bhī sīkhī hai

    barā-e-dostāñ ye tarz-e-ayyārī bhī sīkhī hai

    ba-pās-e-ahl-e-majlis nāz-bardārī bhī sīkhī hai

    adākārī meñ yaktā huuñ gulū-kārī bhī sīkhī hai

    fuzūñ kuchh aur bhī ab rang-e-mahfil karne vaalā huuñ

    maiñ apnī shā.irī meñ raqs shāmil karne vaalā huuñ

    ḳhudā rakkhe mirī begam ġharīq-e-nukta-chīnī hai

    mujassam barhamī nā-vāqif-e-ḳhanda-jabīnī hai

    na is baat meñ narmī na lab meñ angbīnī hai

    ba-faiz-e-shā.irī ghar meñ na ghī hai aur na chīnī hai

    tabī.at ab to hai āmāda-e-tark-e-ġhazal-ḳhvānī

    che kaarī kunad aaqil ki baaz aayad pashemānī

    main shair hun mujhe ahl-e-hunar fankar kahte hain

    mujhe ramz-ashna-e-nikhat-e-gulzar kahte hain

    KHulus-o-uns ka mujh ko alam-bardar kahte hain

    jo baqi hain mujhe ek banda-e-bekar kahte hain

    zabun-haali ki zad mein hai bayan mera zaban meri

    nahin minnat-kash-e-tab-e-shunidan dastan meri

    jise dekho wahi meri haqiqat se hai begana

    koi be-KHud samajhta hai koi kahta hai diwana

    sunaun kis ko ja kar apni arzani ka afsana

    yaqin kije mere haq mein na mister hai na maulana

    unhen zid main gulistan ko gulistan kyun nahin kahta

    harim-e-dahr mein insan ko insan kyun nahin kahta

    har ek bazm-e-suKHan mein go mujhe bulwaya jata hai

    jo hain be-zauq un ko bhi mujhe sunwaya jata hai

    sitam kya kya meri jaan-e-hazin par Dhaya jata hai

    faqat ek pan aur kuchh dad par TarKHaya jata hai

    mujhe sheron ke badle ek niwala tak nahin milta

    jahan chhapta hun mujh ko wo risala tak nahin milta

    ada-e-dil wahi aur KHu-e-dil-dari bhi sikhi hai

    bara-e-dostan ye tarz-e-ayyari bhi sikhi hai

    ba-pas-e-ahl-e-majlis naz-bardari bhi sikhi hai

    adakari mein yakta hun gulu-kari bhi sikhi hai

    fuzun kuchh aur bhi ab rang-e-mahfil karne wala hun

    main apni shairi mein raqs shamil karne wala hun

    KHuda rakkhe meri begam ghariq-e-nukta-chini hai

    mujassam barhami na-waqif-e-KHanda-jabini hai

    na is ki baat mein narmi na lab mein angbini hai

    ba-faiz-e-shairi ghar mein na ghi hai aur na chini hai

    tabiat ab to hai aamada-e-tark-e-ghazal-KHwani

    che ra kari kunad aaqil ki baz aayad pashemani
