kabe ki hai hawas kabhi ku-e-butan ki hai
kaabe kī hai havas kabhī kū-e-butāñ kī hai
mujh ko ḳhabar nahīñ mirī miTTī kahāñ kī hai
sun ke mirā fasāna unheñ lutf aa gayā
suntā huuñ ab ki roz talab qissa-ḳhvāñ kī hai
paiġhām-bar kī baat par aapas meñ ranj kyā
merī zabāñ kī hai na tumhārī zabāñ kī hai
kuchh tāzgī ho lazzat-e-āzār ke liye
har dam mujhe talāsh na.e āsmāñ kī hai
jāñ-bar bhī ho ga.e haiñ bahut mujh se nīm-jāñ
kyā ġham hai ai tabīb jo puurī vahāñ kī hai
hasrat baras rahī hai hamāre mazār par
kahte haiñ sab ye qabr kisī naujavāñ kī hai
vaqt-e-ḳhirām-e-nāz dikhā do judā judā
ye chaal hashr kī ye ravish āsmāñ kī hai
fursat kahāñ ki ham se kisī vaqt tū mile
din ġhair kā hai raat tire pāsbāñ kī hai
qāsid kī guftugū se tasallī ho kis tarah
chhuptī nahīñ vo baat jo terī zabāñ kī hai
jaur-e-raqīb o zulm-e-falak kā nahīñ ḳhayāl
tashvīsh ek ḳhātir-e-nā-mehrbāñ kī hai
sun kar mirā fasāna-e-ġham us ne ye kahā
ho jaa.e jhuuT sach yahī ḳhūbī bayāñ kī hai
dāman sambhāl bāñdh kamar āstīñ chaḌhā
ḳhanjar nikāl dil meñ agar imtihāñ kī hai
har har nafas meñ dil se nikalne lagā ġhubār
kyā jaane gard-e-rāh ye kis kārvāñ kī hai
kyūñki na aate ḳhuld se aadam zamīn par
mauzūñ vahīñ vo ḳhuub hai jo sunte jahāñ kī hai
taqdīr se ye pūchh rahā huuñ ki ishq meñ
tadbīr koī bhī sitam-e-nā-gahāñ kī hai
urdu hai jis kā naam hamīñ jānte haiñ 'dāġh'
hindostāñ meñ dhuum hamārī zabāñ kī hai
kabe ki hai hawas kabhi ku-e-butan ki hai
mujh ko KHabar nahin meri miTTi kahan ki hai
sun ke mera fasana unhen lutf aa gaya
sunta hun ab ki roz talab qissa-KHwan ki hai
paigham-bar ki baat par aapas mein ranj kya
meri zaban ki hai na tumhaari zaban ki hai
kuchh tazgi ho lazzat-e-azar ke liye
har dam mujhe talash nae aasman ki hai
jaan-bar bhi ho gae hain bahut mujh se nim-jaan
kya gham hai ai tabib jo puri wahan ki hai
hasrat baras rahi hai hamare mazar par
kahte hain sab ye qabr kisi naujawan ki hai
waqt-e-KHiram-e-naz dikha do juda juda
ye chaal hashr ki ye rawish aasman ki hai
fursat kahan ki hum se kisi waqt tu mile
din ghair ka hai raat tere pasban ki hai
qasid ki guftugu se tasalli ho kis tarah
chhupti nahin wo baat jo teri zaban ki hai
jaur-e-raqib o zulm-e-falak ka nahin KHayal
tashwish ek KHatir-e-na-mehrban ki hai
sun kar mera fasana-e-gham us ne ye kaha
ho jae jhuT sach yahi KHubi bayan ki hai
daman sambhaal bandh kamar aastin chaDha
KHanjar nikal dil mein agar imtihan ki hai
har har nafas mein dil se nikalne laga ghubar
kya jaane gard-e-rah ye kis karwan ki hai
kyunki na aate KHuld se aadam zamin par
mauzun wahin wo KHub hai jo sunte jahan ki hai
taqdir se ye puchh raha hun ki ishq mein
tadbir koi bhi sitam-e-na-gahan ki hai
urdu hai jis ka nam hamin jaante hain 'dagh'
hindostan mein dhum hamari zaban ki hai
