Soze dil chahiye, chashm-e num chahiye aur shoqِ talabb mooatbar chahiye
hon muyassar madeeney ki galian agar, aankh kaafi nahi hai nazar chahiye
un ki mehfil ke aadaab kuch aur hain, lab kushai ki jurrat munasib nahi
un ki sarkar mein iltija ke liye, jnbshِ lab nahi, chashm-e tar chahiye
apni ro daad gham mein sunadun kisay, mere dukh ko koi aur samjhay ga kya ?
jis ki khakِ qadam bhi hai khakِ Shifa , mere zakhamo ko woh charah gir chahiye
ronaqai zindagi ki bohat dekh len, ab mein aankhon ko apni karoon ga bhi kya
ab nah kuch deedni hai, nah kuch guftuni, mujh ko aaqa ki bas ik nazar chahiye
mein gdaye dar-e shahِ konain hon, sheesh mehloon ki mujh ko tamanna nahi
ho muyassar zamee pay ke zair-e zamee, mujh ko tayyiba mein ik apna ghar chahiye
un naye raastoon ki nai roshni, hum ko raas aayi hai aur nah raas aaye gi
hum ko khoyi hui roshni chahiye, hum ko ayen kher al-bashr chahiye
gosha gosha madeeney ka par noor hai, sara mahol jalwon se maamoor hai
shart yeh hai ke zarf-e nazar chahiye, dekhnay ko koi deedaa war chahiye
midhat shahِ kon o makan ke liye sirf lafz o bayan ka sahara nah lo
fnِ sheri hai Iqbal apni jagah, naat kehnay ko khon-e jigar chahiye
Mein to khud un ke derka gadda hon –apne aaqa ko mein Nazar kya dun
ab to aankhon mein kuch bhi nahi hai warna qadmon mein ankhen bichadun
anay wali hai un ki sawari phool naton ke ghar ghar sajadun
mere ghar mein andhera bohat hai apni palkon pay shammen jladon
meri jholi mein kuch nahi hai mera sarmaya hai to yahi hai
apni aankhon ki chandi bahadoo –apne maathey ka sona lutadun
be nighai pay meri nah jayen deedaa dar mere nazdeek ayen
mein yahin se madinah dikhadun dekhnay ka saleeqa sikhado
roza pak pishِ nazar hai samnay mere aaqa ka dar hai
mujh ko kya kuch nazar araha hai tum ko lafzon mein kaisay btadon
qaafley ja rahay hain madeeney aur hasrat se mein tak raha ho
ya lapat jaoon qadmon se un ke ya qaza ko mein apni sada dun
meri bakhshish ka saman yahi hai aur dil ka bhi arman yahi hai
bas aik din un ki khidmat mein ja kar un ki naatain unhi ko suna dun
mere ansoo bohat qeemti hain un se wabasta hain un ki yaden
un ki manzil hai khaak madinah yeh Gohr yun hi kaisay lutadun
mujh ko Iqbal nisbat hai un se jin ka har lafz jaan-e sukhan hai
mein jahan naat apni sunadun saari mehfil ki mehfil jagadun
Mein so jaoon ya mustafa kehte kehte
khulay aankh sale Ali kehte kehte
mein wal lail parhnay laga be khudi mein
teri zulff ka maajra kehte kehte
qayamat mein jab mein ne hazrat ko dekha
tarpne laga wad duha kehte kehte
nabi ki ziyarat mad lane mein ho gi
mad neyye yahi chal diya kehte kehte
hzaro hueyin Mushkilain meri aasan
faqat aik mushkil kusha kehte kehte
woh maalik hai sab ka woh bakhshay ga sab ko
bُra kehte kehte bhala kehte kehte
Kya khabar kya saza mujh ko millti, mere aaqa ne izzat bchali
Frdِ e isiyaan meri mujh se le kar, kaali kamli mein apni chupali
woh ataa par ataa karne walay aur hum bhi nahi talnay walay
jaisi deorhi hai waisay bhikari, jaisa dataa hai waisay sawali
mein gadda hon magar kis ke dar ka? woh jo Sultan kon o makan hain
yeh ghulami barri mustand hi, mere sir par hai taaj blali
meri umar rawan bas thehr ja, ab safar ki zaroorat nahi hai
un ke qadmon mein meri jabeen hai aur hathon mein roze ki jaali
iss ko kehte hain bandah nawazi, naam iss ka hai rehmat mizaji
doston par bhi chashm-e karam hai, dushmanon se bhi sheree maqali
mein madeeney se kya agaya hon, zindagi jaisay bujh si gayi hai
ghar ke andar fiza sooni sooni, ghar ke bahar samaa khaali khaali
koi baad-e mukhalif se kahde, ab meri roshni mujh se cheenney
mein ne aankhon ki shammen bujha kar, dil mein tayyiba ki shama Jalali
mein faqat naam lewa hon un ka, un ki tauseef mein kya karoon ga
mein nah Iqbal Khusroo, nah Saadi, mein nah Qudsi nah Jami, nah Hali
Ish’q ky charaag jal gay
Zulmatoon say ham nikal gay
Un kay naqsh-e-pa pe chal gay
Gar rahay thy jo sanbhal gay
Jis taraf Huzoor chal diay
Khaar phool man badal gay
Roo-e-Mustafa ki ik kiran
Zulmatoon kay bal nikal gay
Daikh kar jamal-e-Mustafa
Sang dil jot hay paghal gay
Un ka zik’r sun kay ranj-o-gam
Apnay rastay badal gay
Hay yaqeen ke dar pe ham
Aaj gar nahi to kal gay
Un kay dar pe jo puhunch gay
Har hisaar say nikal gay
Un pe jab Durood parh liya
Hadsoon kay rukh badal gay
Jahan Roza pak Khair ul Wara Hay wo Jannat nahi to Aur kia hay
Kahan main kahan ye Madeenay ki galian ye Qismat Nahi to phir kia hay
MUHAMMAD ki Azmat ko kia poochtay ho ke wo Sahib-e-Qab kosain Thehray
Bashar ki Sarr-e-A’rsh Mehman Nawazi ye Azmat nahi hay to phir aur kia hay
Jo Aasi ko kamli main apni chupa lay jo dushman ko bhi zakham kha kar dua day
Usay aur kia Naam day ga Zamana wo Rahmat nahi to phir kia hay
Qiymat ka ik din muyyan hay laikin hamaray har nafs he Qiyamat
Madeenay say ham jan nisaroon ki doori Qiyamat nahi hay to phir kia hay .
Tum Iqbal ye N’emat keh to rahay ho magar ye bhi socha k kia kar rahy ho
Kahan tum kahan madah-e-yazdan ye jurrat nahi to phir aur kia hay
