satwin manzil se kuda chahiye

sātvīñ manzil se kuudā chāhiye

ḳhud-kushī karne ko aur kyā chāhiye

apne hāthoñ apnī āñkheñ phoḌ kar

chār-sū apne ko dekhā chāhiye

aa.ine meñ koī rahtā hai zarūr

kaun hai chupke se pūchhā chāhiye

niiñd ke kamre meñ dam ghuTne lagā

ḳhvāb kī khiḌkī ko kholā chāhiye

'faiz'-sāhib sher kyuuñ kahte nahīñ

'faiz'-sāhib sher kahnā chāhiye

tum se biivī ko shikāyat ho agar

to 'salīm'-ahmad ko paḌhnā chāhiye

aao 'alvī' us ke ghar kī battiyāñ

bujh ga.iiñ ab ghar ko chalnā chāhiye

satwin manzil se kuda chahiye

KHud-kushi karne ko aur kya chahiye

apne hathon apni aankhen phoD kar

chaar-su apne ko dekha chahiye

aaine mein koi rahta hai zarur

kaun hai chupke se puchha chahiye

nind ke kamre mein dam ghuTne laga

KHwab ki khiDki ko khola chahiye

'faiz'-sahib sher kyun kahte nahin

'faiz'-sahib sher kahna chahiye

tum se biwi ko shikayat ho agar

to 'salim'-ahmad ko paDhna chahiye

aao 'alwi' us ke ghar ki battiyan

bujh gain ab ghar ko chalna chahiye
