aag hi kash lag gai hoti
aag hī kaash lag ga.ī hotī
do ghaḌī ko to raushnī hotī
log milte na jo naqāboñ meñ
koī sūrat na ajnabī hotī
pūchhte jis se apnā naam aisī
shahr meñ ek to galī hotī
baat koī kahāñ ḳhushī kī thī
dil ko kis baat kī ḳhushī hotī
maut jab tere iḳhtiyār meñ hai
mere qaabū meñ zindagī hotī
mahak uThtā nagar nagar 'ḳhāvar'
dil kī ḳhushbū agar uḌī hotī
aag hi kash lag gai hoti
do ghaDi ko to raushni hoti
log milte na jo naqabon mein
koi surat na ajnabi hoti
puchhte jis se apna nam aisi
shahr mein ek to gali hoti
baat koi kahan KHushi ki thi
dil ko kis baat ki KHushi hoti
maut jab tere iKHtiyar mein hai
mere qabu mein zindagi hoti
mahak uThta nagar nagar 'KHawar'
dil ki KHushbu agar uDi hoti
