ham ko us shoḳh ne kal dar talak aane na diyā
dar-o-dīvār ko bhī haal sunāne na diyā
parda-e-chashm meñ har dam to chhupā.e aañsū
be-qarārī ne mujhe raaz chhupāne na diyā
mujh ko ālūda rakhā is mirī gumrāhī ne
araq-e-sharm-e-gunah bhī to bahāne na diyā
tere kahne se maiñ ab lā.ūñ kahāñ se nāseh
sabr jab is dil-e-muztar ko ḳhudā ne na diyā
man.a hai bas ki ḳhur-o-ḳhvāb hameñ ġham meñ tere
mar ke sone na diyā zahr bhī khāne na diyā
huuñ sitamgar maiñ jafāoñ se tirī sharminda
nā-tavānī ne mujhe sar bhī uThāne na diyā
dam kā aanā to baḌī baat hai lab par 'ārif'
zo.af ne harf-e-shikāyat kabhī aane na diyā
