juzw-o-kul ka hum is andaz se rishta samjhe

juzv-o-kul kā ham is andāz se rishta samjhe

dekh kar qatre ko māhiyyat-e-dariyā samjhe

har adā terī ham-āhañg thī dil se itnī

har adā ko tirī ham dil kā taqāzā samjhe

ham vo ḳhud-bīñ haiñ ki hañgāma-e-dil ke aage

saare hañgāma-e-gīti ko tamāshā samjhe

ham ko miTTī ke gharoñdoñ kī haqīqat ma.alūm

jism kī ḳhaak ko ham nafs kā saaya samjhe

ham ki har nisbat-e-mauhūm ko apnāte rahe

ik shikasta se ta.alluq ko bhī kitnā samjhe

ustuvār itnā huā rishta-e-āvāz 'akbar'

dil kī dhaḌkan ko bhī ham dost kā lahja samjhe

juzw-o-kul ka hum is andaz se rishta samjhe

dekh kar qatre ko mahiyyat-e-dariya samjhe

har ada teri ham-ahang thi dil se itni

har ada ko teri hum dil ka taqaza samjhe

hum wo KHud-bin hain ki hangama-e-dil ke aage

sare hangama-e-giti ko tamasha samjhe

hum ko miTTi ke gharondon ki haqiqat malum

jism ki KHak ko hum nafs ka saya samjhe

hum ki har nisbat-e-mauhum ko apnate rahe

ek shikasta se talluq ko bhi kitna samjhe

ustuwar itna hua rishta-e-awaz 'akbar'

dil ki dhaDkan ko bhi hum dost ka lahja samjhe
