ab shahr mein aqdar-kushi ek hunar hai
ab shahr meñ aqdār-kushī ek hunar hai
fan jurm hai me.ār-kushī ek hunar hai
dushman se to kyā haq-e-adāvat kā gilā jab
yāroñ ke liye yār-kushī ek hunar hai
kyā kyā hai nadāmat unheñ ab apnī ravish par
kahte the jo kirdār-kushī ek hunar hai
jis daur meñ ho lafz kī hurmat kī tijārat
us daur meñ afkār-kushī ek hunar hai
ḳhātir se jo karnā paḌī kaj-fahm kī tā.īd
lagtā thā ki inkār-kushī ek hunar hai
hairat hai ki vo fan ke parastār haiñ 'anjum'
jin ke liye fankār-kushī ek hunar hai
ab shahr mein aqdar-kushi ek hunar hai
fan jurm hai mear-kushi ek hunar hai
dushman se to kya haq-e-adawat ka gila jab
yaron ke liye yar-kushi ek hunar hai
kya kya hai nadamat unhen ab apni rawish par
kahte the jo kirdar-kushi ek hunar hai
jis daur mein ho lafz ki hurmat ki tijarat
us daur mein afkar-kushi ek hunar hai
KHatir se jo karna paDi kaj-fahm ki taid
lagta tha ki inkar-kushi ek hunar hai
hairat hai ki wo fan ke parastar hain 'anjum'
jin ke liye fankar-kushi ek hunar hai
