ek mushkil si bahar-taur bani hoti hai
ek mushkil sī bahar-taur banī hotī hai
tujh se baaz aa.eñ to phir ḳhud se Thanī hotī hai
kuchh to le baiThtī hai apnī shikasta-pā.ī
aur kuchh raah meñ chhāñv bhī ghanī hotī hai
mere siine se zarā kaan lagā kar dekho
saañs chaltī hai ki zanjīr-zanī hotī hai
ābla-pā.ī bhī hotī hai muqaddar apnā
sar pe aflāk kī chādar bhī tanī hotī hai
duudh kī nahr nikālī hai ġhamoñ se ham ne
ham batā sakte haiñ kyā koh-kanī hotī hai
aañkh to khultī hai kirnoñ kī talab meñ lekin
zeb-e-mizhgāñ kisī neze kī anī hotī hai
dasht-e-ġhurbat hī pe mauqūf nahīñ hai 'tābish'
ab to ghar meñ bhī ġharīb-ul-vatanī hotī hai
ek mushkil si bahar-taur bani hoti hai
tujh se baz aaen to phir KHud se Thani hoti hai
kuchh to le baiThti hai apni shikasta-pai
aur kuchh rah mein chhanw bhi ghani hoti hai
mere sine se zara kan laga kar dekho
sans chalti hai ki zanjir-zani hoti hai
aabla-pai bhi hoti hai muqaddar apna
sar pe aflak ki chadar bhi tani hoti hai
dudh ki nahr nikali hai ghamon se hum ne
hum bata sakte hain kya koh-kani hoti hai
aankh to khulti hai kirnon ki talab mein lekin
zeb-e-mizhgan kisi neze ki ani hoti hai
dasht-e-ghurbat hi pe mauquf nahin hai 'tabish'
ab to ghar mein bhi gharib-ul-watani hoti hai
- Book : Ishq Abaad (kulliyat) (Pg. 101)
