Sher of Iftikhar Arif
tum se bichhaḌ kar zinda haiñ
jaan bahut sharminda haiñ
tum se bichhaD kar zinda hain
jaan bahut sharminda hain
ḳhvāb kī tarah bikhar jaane ko jī chāhtā hai
aisī tanhā.ī ki mar jaane ko jī chāhtā hai
KHwab ki tarah bikhar jaane ko ji chahta hai
aisi tanhai ki mar jaane ko ji chahta hai
dil pāgal hai roz na.ī nādānī kartā hai
aag meñ aag milātā hai phir paanī kartā hai
dil pagal hai roz nai nadani karta hai
aag mein aag milata hai phir pani karta hai

duā ko haat uThāte hue laraztā huuñ
kabhī duā nahīñ māñgī thī maañ ke hote hue
dua ko hat uThate hue larazta hun
kabhi dua nahin mangi thi man ke hote hue
ḳhud ko bikharte dekhte haiñ kuchh kar nahīñ paate haiñ
phir bhī log ḳhudāoñ jaisī bāteñ karte haiñ
KHud ko bikharte dekhte hain kuchh kar nahin pate hain
phir bhi log KHudaon jaisi baaten karte hain
