    is tarah aaj phir ābād hai vīrāna-e-dil

    ki hai labrez mai-e-shauq se paimāna-e-dil

    dil-e-betāb meñ pinhāñ hai har armān-e-nazar

    chashm-e-mushtāq meñ hai surḳhi-e-afsāna-e-dil

    aaj sham.oñ se ye kah do ki ḳhabar-dār raheñ

    aaj bedār hai ḳhākistar-e-parvāna-e-dil

    is ko hai ek faqat dekhne vaalā darkār

    tuur se kam to nahīñ jalva-e-jānāna-e-dil

    jaag bhī ḳhvāb se ai mashriq o maġhrib ke hakīm

    ki tire vāste laayā huuñ maiñ nazrāna-e-dil

    ye zarā dekh ki aa.e haiñ kahāñ se donoñ

    dil tirī ḳhaak dīvāna maiñ dīvāna-e-dil

    shauq raah meñ ik saḳht maqām aayā hai

    mirā TuuTā huā dil mire kaam aayā hai

    sāqī-e-jāñ tire mai-ḳhāne ik riñd-e-haqīr

    misl-e-bū toḌ ke har qaid-e-maqām aayā hai

    allāh allāh tirī bazm ye ālam-e-kaif

    mere hāthoñ meñ chhalaktā huā jaam aayā hai

    tire naam aaj zamāne ke mahakte hue phuul

    'ġhālib' o 'mīr' ke gulshan salām aayā hai

    vo mirī hasrat-e-derīna shahbāz-e-jalīl

    kitnī muddat meñ bil-āḳhir tah-e-dām aayā hai

    tujh ko bhī dil meñ basāyā hai jo 'iqbāl' ke saath

    to kahīñ ke ye andāz-e-kalām aayā hai

    kyuuñ tujhe ye abadī niiñd pasand aa.ī hai

    ai ki har lafz tirā shān-e-masīhā.ī hai

    sāqi-e-mai-kada-e-zīst zarā aañkh to khol

    tirī turbat pe siyah mast ghaTā chhā.ī hai

    jaag bhī ḳhvāb se dil-dāda-e-gulzār-o-chaman

    ki tire des bāġhoñ pe bahār aa.ī hai

    jo tire ghar meñ hai aaj us chamanistāñ ko to dekh

    zarre zarre ko junūn-e-chaman-ārā.ī hai

    'hathaway' hai makāñ vo ki ''maqām-e-nau'' hai

    jo bhī ḳhitta hai vo ik paikar-e-zebā.ī hai

    kuchh ḳhabar bhī hai ki aivāñ hasīñ maujoñ meñ

    jo tire daur meñ thī ab bhī vo ra.anā.ī hai

    vo tirā naġhma ki sīnoñ meñ tapāñ aaj bhī hai

    ahl-e-ehsās sarmāya-e-jāñ aaj bhī hai

    riñd haiñ mashriq o maġhrib meñ usī ke mushtāq

    vo tirā bāda-e-kohna ki javāñ aaj bhī hai

    aaj bhī ka.aba-e-arbāb-e-nazar hai tirī fikr

    virsa-e-ahl-e-junūñ terā bayāñ aaj bhī hai

    aaj se chaar sadī qabl jo chamkā thā kabhī

    tire naġhmāt meñ vo soz-e-nihāñ aaj bhī hai

    jis meñ hai baada junūñ bhī mai-e-hosh ke saath

    tire hāthoñ meñ vahī ratl-e-girāñ aaj bhī hai

    ne tamsīl ke jaade pe dikhāyā jo kabhī

    vahī miil aur vahī sañg-e-nishāñ aaj bhī hai

    zulmat-e-dahr rātoñ meñ sahar-bār hai

    ziist ik qāfila hai qāfila-sālār hai

    har ik daur meñ hai dīda-e-bīnā tarah

    har zamāne meñ dil-e-zinda-o-bedār hai

    jis bātoñ meñ dhaḌaktā hai dil-e-asr-e-ravāñ

    aaj tamsīl-e-zamāna vo kirdār hai

    kyuuñ na ho lauh o qalam ko tire uslūb pe naaz

    hasan-e-guftār hai ganjīna-e-afkār hai

    bazm-e-jānāñ ho to andāz tirā phuul shāḳh

    zulm ke sāmne shamshīr-e-jigar-dār hai to

    kisī mulk kisī daur fankār nahīñ

    balki har mulk har daur fankār hai

    is tarah aaj phir aabaad hai virana-e-dil

    ki hai labrez mai-e-shauq se paimana-e-dil

    dil-e-betab mein pinhan hai har arman-e-nazar

    chashm-e-mushtaq mein hai surKHi-e-afsana-e-dil

    aaj shamon se ye kah do ki KHabar-dar rahen

    aaj bedar hai KHakistar-e-parwana-e-dil

    is ko hai ek faqat dekhne wala darkar

    tur se kam to nahin jalwa-e-jaanana-e-dil

    jag bhi KHwab se ai mashriq o maghrib ke hakim

    ki tere waste laya hun main nazrana-e-dil

    ye zara dekh ki aae hain kahan se donon

    dil teri KHak ka diwana main diwana-e-dil

    shauq ki rah mein ek saKHt maqam aaya hai

    mera TuTa hua dil hi mere kaam aaya hai

    saqi-e-jaan tere mai-KHane ka ek rind-e-haqir

    misl-e-bu toD ke har qaid-e-maqam aaya hai

    allah allah teri bazm ka ye aalam-e-kaif

    mere hathon mein chhalakta hua jam aaya hai

    tere nam aaj zamane ke mahakte hue phul

    'ghaalib' o 'mir' ke gulshan ka salam aaya hai

    wo meri hasrat-e-derina ka shahbaz-e-jalil

    kitni muddat mein bil-aKHir tah-e-dam aaya hai

    tujh ko bhi dil mein basaya hai jo 'iqbaal' ke sath

    to kahin ja ke ye andaz-e-kalam aaya hai

    kyun tujhe ye abadi nind pasand aai hai

    ai ki har lafz tera shan-e-masihai hai

    saqi-e-mai-kada-e-zist zara aankh to khol

    teri turbat pe siyah mast ghaTa chhai hai

    jag bhi KHwab se dil-dada-e-gulzar-o-chaman

    ki tere des ki baghon pe bahaar aai hai

    jo tere ghar mein hai aaj us chamanistan ko to dekh

    zarre zarre ko junun-e-chaman-arai hai

    'hathaway' ka hai makan wo ki maqam-e-nau hai

    jo bhi KHitta hai wo ek paikar-e-zebai hai

    kuchh KHabar bhi hai ki aiwan ki hasin maujon mein

    jo tere daur mein thi ab bhi wo ranai hai

    wo tera naghma ki sinon mein tapan aaj bhi hai

    ahl-e-ehsas ka sarmaya-e-jaan aaj bhi hai

    rind hain mashriq o maghrib mein usi ke mushtaq

    wo tera baada-e-kohna ki jawan aaj bhi hai

    aaj bhi kaba-e-arbab-e-nazar hai teri fikr

    wirsa-e-ahl-e-junun tera bayan aaj bhi hai

    aaj se chaar sadi qabl jo chamka tha kabhi

    tere naghmat mein wo soz-e-nihan aaj bhi hai

    jis mein hai baada junun ka bhi mai-e-hosh ke sath

    tere hathon mein wahi ratl-e-giran aaj bhi hai

    tu ne tamsil ke jade pe dikhaya jo kabhi

    wahi mil aur wahi sang-e-nishan aaj bhi hai

    zulmat-e-dahr ki raaton mein sahar-bar hai tu

    zist ek qafila hai qafila-salar hai tu

    tu har ek daur mein hai dida-e-bina ki tarah

    har zamane mein dil-e-zinda-o-bedar hai tu

    jis ki baaton mein dhaDakta hai dil-e-asr-e-rawan

    aaj tamsil-e-zamana ka wo kirdar hai tu

    kyun na ho lauh o qalam ko tere uslub pe naz

    hasan-e-guftar hai ganjina-e-afkar hai tu

    bazm-e-jaanan ho to andaz tera phul ki shaKH

    zulm ke samne shamshir-e-jigar-dar hai to

    tu kisi mulk kisi daur ka fankar nahin

    balki har mulk ka har daur ka fankar hai tu
