koī zaḳhm khulā to sahne lage koī Tiis uThī lahrāne lage
ye kis kī duā kā faiz huā ham kyā kyā kaam dikhāne lage
dil-e-zār usī bastī meñ chal tire naam kī sarsoñ phūlī hai
chāñdī kī saḌak par chalte hue ab paañv tire kumhlāne lage
koī Duub gayā to kyā Duubā koī paar utrā to kyā utrā
par kyā kahiye dil dariyā kī jo paañv dhare itrāne lage
abhī shaam zarā sī mahkī hai par kyā kahiye kyā jaldī hai
abhī raat paḌāv bhī aage hai aur ḳhvāb bulāve aane lage
tum kaun se 'hāfiz' o 'ġhālib' ho tum 'mīr' 'kabīr' kahāñ ke ho
tumheñ pahlā sabaq bhī yaad nahīñ aur fankārī dikhlāne lage
