rasta bhī kaThin dhuup meñ shiddat bhī bahut thī
saa.e se magar us ko mohabbat bhī bahut thī
ḳheme na koī mere musāfir ke jalā.e
zaḳhmī thā bahut paañv masāfat bhī bahut thī
sab dost mire muntazir-e-parda-e-shab the
din meñ to safar karne meñ diqqat bhī bahut thī
bārish kī duāoñ meñ namī aañkh kī mil jaa.e
jazbe kī kabhī itnī rifāqat bhī bahut thī
kuchh to tire mausam hī mujhe raas kam aa.e
aur kuchh mirī miTTī meñ baġhāvat bhī bahut thī
phūloñ kā bikharnā to muqaddar hī thā lekin
kuchh is meñ havāoñ kī siyāsat bhī bahut thī
vo bhī sar-e-maqtal hai ki sach jis kā thā shāhid
aur vāqif-e-ahvāl-e-adālat bhī bahut thī
is tark-e-rifāqat pe pareshāñ to huuñ lekin
ab tak ke tire saath pe hairat bhī bahut thī
ḳhush aa.e tujhe shahr-e-munāfiq kī amīrī
ham logoñ ko sach kahne kī aadat bhī bahut thī
