tir jaise kaman ke aage
tiir jaise kamān ke aage
maut kuḌel javān ke aage
bādshāh aur faqīr donoñ the
shahr meñ ik dukān ke aage
chalte chalte zamīn ruk sī ga.ī
nā-gahāñ ik makān ke aage
ham bhī apnā mujassama rakh aa.e
raat andhī chaTān ke aage
tasht-e-jāñ meñ sajā ke rakhnā thā
harf-e-dil mehmān ke aage
kyā 'ajab shaḳhs hai ki baiThā hai
dhuup meñ sā.ebān ke aage
ham kisī ko gavāh kyā karte
is khule āsmān ke aage
kab talak jhuuT bolte sāhib
is tarah ḳhāndān ke aage
kaun kahtā 'rasā' ḳhudā-lagtī
aise kāfir gumān ke aage
tir jaise kaman ke aage
maut kuDel jawan ke aage
baadshah aur faqir donon the
shahr mein ek dukan ke aage
chalte chalte zamin ruk si gai
na-gahan ek makan ke aage
hum bhi apna mujassama rakh aae
raat andhi chaTan ke aage
tasht-e-jaan mein saja ke rakhna tha
harf-e-dil mehman ke aage
kya 'ajab shaKHs hai ki baiTha hai
dhup mein saeban ke aage
hum kisi ko gawah kya karte
is khule aasman ke aage
kab talak jhuT bolte sahib
is tarah KHandan ke aage
kaun kahta 'rasa' KHuda-lagti
aise kafir guman ke aage
