Nahin aate humein is mein takraar kya thi Magar wada karte hue aabroo kya thi
Tumhare paami ne sab raaz khola Khata ismein bande ki sarkar kya thi
Bhari bazm mein apne aashiq ko taara Teri aankh masti mein hoshiyar kya thi
Taa’mul to tha unko aane mein qasid Magar yeh bata tarz inkaar kya thi
Khiche khud bakhud jaanib-e-toor Musa Kashish teri aye shauq-e-deedaar kya thi
Kahin zikr rehta hai Iqbal tera Fasoon tha koi teri guftaar kya thi
“Fitrat ko khird ke rubaru kar Takhzeer maqam rang o boo kar”
“Tu apni khudi ko kho chuka hai Khoi hui shay ki justuju kar”

Aryan hain tere chaman ki hoorain Chaak-e-gul o laala ko rafu kar”
Bezauq nahi agarche fitrat Jo is se nah ho saka woh to kar”
Har shay musafir, har cheez rahi
Kya chaand, taare, kya murgh o maahi
Tu mard-e-maidan, tu mir-e-lashkar
Noori hazoori tere sipah
Kuch qadr apni tu ne nah jaani
Yeh be-sawadi, yeh kam nigah
Dunya-e-dun ki kab tak ghulami
Ya raahibi kar, ya padshah
Peer-e-haram ko dekha hai maine
Kirdar be-sooz, guftaar waahi
Khul jaayein, kya maze hain tamannaaye shauq mein Do chaar din jo meri tamanna kare koi
Nazaaray ko yeh janbish-e mijgaan bhi baar hai Nargis ki aankh se tujhe dekha kare koi
Uzr-aafreen jurm-e mohabbat hai husn-e dost Mahshar mein uzr taza na paida kare koi
Mansoor ko huwa lab-gooya paighaam-e maut Ab kya kisi ke ishq ka daawa kare koi
Ud baithe kya samajh ke bhala toor par Kaleem Taqat ho deed ki to taqaza kare koi
Ho deed ka jo shauq to aankhon ko band kar Hai dekhna yehi ke na dekha kare koi
Chhipti nahi hai yeh nagah-e shauq hum-nashin Phir aur kis tarah unhein dekha kare koi
Main intehaye ishq hoon, tu intehaye husn Dekhe mujhe ke tujh ko tamasha kare koi
Naala hai bulbul shorida tera khaam abhi Apne seenay mein ise aur zara thaam abhi
Pukhta hoti hai agar maslahat andesh ho aqal Ishq ho maslahat andesh to hai khaam abhi
Bekhatar kood pada aatish-e Namrood mein ishq Aqal hai mehvo-e tamasha-e lab-e baam abhi
Ishq farmooda-e qasid se sabuk gaam-e amal Aqal samjhi hi nahi ma’ni-e paighaam abhi
Shivay-e ishq hai azadi o dahr aashoobi Tu hai zanari-e but khanay-e ayaam abhi
Uzr-e parhez pe kehta hai bigad kar saaqi Hai tere dil mein wahi kaawish anjaam abhi
Sa’i-e paiman hai tarazu-e kam o kaif hayat Teri mizaan hai shumar-e seher o shaam abhi
Abr-e naysan yeh tankh bakhshi-e shabnam kab tak Mere kehsaar ke laalay hain tehi jaam abhi
Bada gardaan-e ajam woh arabi meri sharab Mere saaghar se jhijakte hain mei aasham abhi
Khabar Iqbal ki laaye hai gulistan se naseem Nau girftar phadakta hai teh daam abhi
Khudī woh bahr hai jis kā koī kināra nahīn
Tū āb jo ise samjhā agar tū chārah nahīn
Ṭilasm-e gunbad-e gardūn ko toṛ sakte hain
Zujāj kī yeh ʿimārat hai sang-e khāra nahīn
Khudī mein doobte hain phir ubhar bhi āte hain
Magar yeh ḥausla-e mard hīch kāra nahīn
Tere maqām ko anjum-shanās kyā jāne
Ke khāk zindah hai to tābiʿ sitārah nahīn
Yahīn behisht bhi hai, ḥūr o Jibrīl bhi hai
Tērī nigāh mein abhi shaukī nazāra nahīn
Ghazab hai ʿayn-e karam mein bukhīl hai fiṭrat
Ke lāl-e nāb mein ātesh to hai sharārah nahīn
Mere junūn ne zamāne ko khūb pechānā
Woh pīrahan mujhe bākhashā ke pāra pāra nahīn
Metā’ be bahā hai dard o soz ārazū mandī
Maqām-e bandagī de kar na loon shān-e khudāwandī
Guzar ʿuqāt kar letā hai yeh kūh o biyābān mein
Ke shāhīn ke liye zilat hai kār āshiyānā bandī
Ziyārat-gāh ahl-e azm o himmat hai lahd merī
Ke khāk rāh ko maine batāyā rāz alwandī
Wohi meri kam-naseebi, wohi teri be-niaazi Mere kaam kuch na aaya, yeh kamal-e-nawaazi
Main kahaan hoon, tu kahaan hai, yeh makaan ke laa makaan hai Yeh jahaan mera jahaan hai, ke teri karishma saazi
Isi kashmakash mein guzri meri zindagi ki raatain Kabhi soz-o-saaz-e-Rumi, kabhi pech-o-taab-e-Razi
Na zubaan koi ghazal ki, na zubaan se ba-khabar main Koi dil-kasha sada ho, ajmi ho ya ke taazi
Nahiñ fiqr o saltanat mein koi imtiaaz aisa Yeh sipah ki tegh-baazi, woh nigah ki tegh-baazi
Koi caravan se toota, koi bad-gumaan Haram se Ke ameer-e-caravan mein nahi khooye dil nawazi
Muslim ke lahoo mein hai saleeka dil nawazi ka Murovat husn aalam geer hai mardan ghazi ka
Shikayat hai mujhe, ya Rab, Khudawandon-e-maktab se Sabaq shaheen bachon ko de rahe hain khak-baazi ka
Bahut muddat ke nakchiroon ka andaaz-e-nigah badla Ke maine faash kar daala tareeqa shahbaazi ka
Qalandar jaz do harf “la ilaha” kuch bhi nahi rakhta Faqeeh-e-shahr qaaroon hai lughat-e-Hijazi ka
Hadith-e-baada-o-meena-o-jaam aati nahi mujhko Na kar khaarashgaafon se taqaaza sheesha saazi ka
Kahan se tune, aye Iqbal, seekhi hai yeh darveshi Ke charcha padhshahon mein hai teri be-niaazi ka
Majnoon ne sheher chhoda to sahra bhi chhod de
Nazaray ki haus ho to Layla bhi chhod de
Waiz kamal-e-tark se milti hai yahan muraad
Duniya jo chhod di hai to aakhiraat bhi chhod de
Taqleed ki raah se to behtar hai khudkushi
Rasta bhi dhoond Khizr ka, soda bhi chhod de
Maanand-e-khaama teri zubaan par hai harf-e-ghair
Be-gaana shay pe naazish be-ja bhi chhod de
Lutf-e-kalaam kya jo na ho dil mein dard-e-ishq
Basmal nahi hai to tu tadapna bhi chhod de
Shabnam ki tarah phoolon pe ro aur chaman se chal
Is bagh mein qiyaam ka soda bhi chhod de
Hai aashiqi mein rasam alag sab se baithna
But-khana bhi haram bhi kaleesa bhi chhod de
