ai be-KHabari ki nind sone walo

ye qaul kisi buzurg ka sachcha hai

be-kar na waqt ko guzaro yaro

pani mein hai aag ka lagana dushwar

apne hi dil apnon ka dukhate hain bahut

DhunDa kare koi lakh kya milta hai

pur-shor ulfat ki nida hai ab bhi

chaupae ki tarah tu kitabon se na lad

jis darja ho mushkilat ki tughyani

ahmad ka maqam hai maqam-e-mahmud

duniya ka na kha fareb viran hai ye

ab qaum ki jo rasm hai so ul-julul

id-e-ramzan hai aaj ba-aish-o-surur

gar nek dili se kuchh bhalai ki hai

insan ko chahiye na himmat haare

kahte hain sabhi musdam allah allah

duniya ke liye hain sab hamare dhande

hum aalam-e-KHwab mein hain ya hum hain KHwab

banda hun to ek KHuda banaun apna

har KHwahish-o-arz-o-iltija se tauba

ya-rab koi naqsh-e-muddaa bhi na rahe

makshuf hua ki did hairani hai

id-e-qurban hai aaj ai ahl-e-hamam

gar jaur-o-jafa kare to inam samajh

afsurdagi aur garm-joshi bhi ghalat

hai shukr durust aur shikayat zeba

duniya ko na tu qibla-e-hajat samajh

aslaf ka hissa tha agar nam-o-numud

kaTh ki hanDiya chaDhi kab bar bar

karta hun sada main apni shanen tabdil

aaya hun main jaanib-e-adam hasti se

kafir ko hai bandagi buton ki gham-KHwar

jab tak ki sabaq milap ka yaad raha

lakhon chizen bana ke bhejen angrez

tezi nahin minjumla-e-ausaf-e-kamal

saqi o sharab o jam o paimana kya

fitrat ke mutabiq agar insan le kaam

gar ruh na paband-e-tayyun hoti

taqrir se wo fuzun bayan se bahar

din aur duniya ka tafraqa hai mohmal

tauhid ki rah mein hai virana-e-saKHt

maqsud hai qaid-e-justuju se bahar

haqqa ki buland hai maqam-e-akbar

chakkhi bhi hai tu ne durd-e-jam-e-tauhid

haq hai to kahan hai phir majal-e-baatil

dekha to kahin nazar na aaya hargiz

israf se ehtiraaz agar farmate

hai bar-e-KHuda ki aalam-ara tu hai

qallash hai qaum to paDhegi kyunkar

badla nahin koi bhes na-chaari se
