gham-e-duniya se gar pai bhi fursat sar uThane ki
ġham-e-duniyā se gar paa.ī bhī fursat sar uThāne kī
falak kā dekhnā taqrīb tere yaad aane kī
khulegā kis tarah mazmūñ mire maktūb kā yā-rab
qasam khaa.ī hai us kāfir ne kāġhaz ke jalāne kī
lipaTnā parniyāñ meñ shola-e-ātish kā pinhāñ hai
vale mushkil hai hikmat dil meñ soz-e-ġham chhupāne kī
unheñ manzūr apne zaḳhmiyoñ kā dekh aanā thā
uThe the sair-e-gul ko dekhnā shoḳhī bahāne kī
hamārī sādgī thī iltifāt-e-nāz par marnā
tirā aanā na thā zālim magar tamhīd jaane kī
lakad kūb-e-havādis kā tahammul kar nahīñ saktī
mirī tāqat ki zāmin thī butoñ kī naaz uThāne kī
kahūñ kyā ḳhūbi-e-auzā-e-abnā-e-zamāñ 'ġhālib'
badī kī us ne jis se ham ne kī thī bār-hā nekī
gham-e-duniya se gar pai bhi fursat sar uThane ki
falak ka dekhna taqrib tere yaad aane ki
khulega kis tarah mazmun mere maktub ka ya-rab
qasam khai hai us kafir ne kaghaz ke jalane ki
lipaTna parniyan mein shola-e-atish ka pinhan hai
wale mushkil hai hikmat dil mein soz-e-gham chhupane ki
unhen manzur apne zaKHmiyon ka dekh aana tha
uThe the sair-e-gul ko dekhna shoKHi bahane ki
hamari sadgi thi iltifat-e-naz par marna
tera aana na tha zalim magar tamhid jaane ki
lakad kub-e-hawadis ka tahammul kar nahin sakti
meri taqat ki zamin thi buton ki naz uThane ki
kahun kya KHubi-e-auza-e-abna-e-zaman 'ghaalib'
badi ki us ne jis se hum ne ki thi bar-ha neki
