    jidhar nigāh uThī khiñch ga.ī na.ī dīvār

    tilism-e-hosh-rubā meñ hai zindagī shumār

    har ek samt musallat hai ghor tārīkī

    bujhe bujhe nazar aa.e tamām shahr-o-dayār

    ye shahr jaise chuḌailoñ koī maskan ho

    zabāneñ guñg haiñ tarsāñ haiñ kūcha-o-bāzār

    ḳhud apnī zaat meñ ham is tarah muqayyad haiñ

    na dil meñ tāb-o-tavāñ hai na jur.at-e-iz.hār

    jo apne siine pe aksar sajā ke rakhte haiñ

    vo tamġha-hā-e-tahavvur to le ga.e aġhyār

    kamāl-e-nāz thā apnī zaraf-nigāhī par

    ajab ki paḌh na sake ham navishta-e-dīvār

    vo maulvī ki usūloñ ke pāsbāñ the kabhī

    vahī to bechte phirte haiñ jubba-o-dastār

    varūd-e-sher pe hadd-e-adab ke pahre haiñ

    jo sach kahoge to Thahroge ek din ġhaddār

    'vahīd' kār-e-siyāsat hai kār-e-be-kārāñ

    zabāñ ko rok lo qaa.em rahe adab vaqār

    jidhar nigah uThi khinch gai nai diwar

    tilism-e-hosh-ruba mein hai zindagi ka shumar

    har ek samt musallat hai ghor tariki

    bujhe bujhe nazar aae tamam shahr-o-dayar

    ye shahr jaise chuDailon ka koi maskan ho

    zabanen gung hain tarsan hain kucha-o-bazar

    KHud apni zat mein hum is tarah muqayyad hain

    na dil mein tab-o-tawan hai na jurat-e-izhaar

    jo apne sine pe aksar saja ke rakhte hain

    wo tamgha-ha-e-tahawwur to le gae aghyar

    kamal-e-naz tha apni zaraf-nigahi par

    ajab ki paDh na sake hum nawishta-e-diwar

    wo maulwi ki usulon ke pasban the kabhi

    wahi to bechte phirte hain jubba-o-dastar

    warud-e-sher pe hadd-e-adab ke pahre hain

    jo sach kahoge to Thahroge ek din ghaddar

    'wahid' kar-e-siyasat hai kar-e-be-karan

    zaban ko rok lo qaem rahe adab ka waqar
