    zamīñ kahīñ bhī na thī chār-sū samundar thā

    kise dikhāte baḌā haul-nāk manzar thā

    luḌhak ke merī taraf aa rahā thā ik patthar

    phir ek aur phir ik aur baḌā patthar thā

    fasīleñ dil girātā huā jo dar aayā

    vo koī aur na thā ḳhvāhishoñ lashkar thā

    bulā rahā thā koī chīḳh chīḳh kar mujh ko

    kueñ meñ jhāñk ke dekhā to maiñ andar thā

    bahut se haath ug aa.e the merī āñkhoñ meñ

    har ek haath meñ ik nok-dār ḳhanjar thā

    vo jañgaloñ meñ daraḳhtoñ pe kūdte phirnā

    burā bahut thā magar aaj se to behtar thā

    hamāre vāste 'alvī' ke sher kyā kam haiñ

    chalo qubūl ki 'ġhālib' baḌā suḳhan-var thā

    zamin kahin bhi na thi chaar-su samundar tha

    kise dikhate baDa haul-nak manzar tha

    luDhak ke meri taraf aa raha tha ek patthar

    phir ek aur phir ek aur baDa sa patthar tha

    fasilen dil ki giraata hua jo dar aaya

    wo koi aur na tha KHwahishon ka lashkar tha

    bula raha tha koi chiKH chiKH kar mujh ko

    kuen mein jhank ke dekha to main hi andar tha

    bahut se hath ug aae the meri aankhon mein

    har ek hath mein ek nok-dar KHanjar tha

    wo jangalon mein daraKHton pe kudte phirna

    bura bahut tha magar aaj se to behtar tha

    hamare waste 'alwi' ke sher kya kam hain

    chalo qubul ki 'ghaalib' baDa suKHan-war tha
