sare kirdar kahani mein kahan aate hain
saare kirdār kahānī meñ kahāñ aate haiñ
dasht meñ ret pe qadmoñ ke nishāñ aate haiñ
shauq kī had se zarā duur nishāna rakkho
justujū se na.e imkāñ ke makāñ aate haiñ
koī tā'zīr agar hai to chaḌhā do suulī
kyoñ tamāshe ko ye iqbālī bayāñ aate haiñ
aa to jaate haiñ tirī bazm-e-satā.ish meñ amiir
kaaT kar ham bhī magar apnī zabāñ aate haiñ
kyā 'ajab dar hai 'sabā' dām-o-diram daan binā
māñgne shāh-o-sipah hifz-o-amāñ aate haiñ
sare kirdar kahani mein kahan aate hain
dasht mein ret pe qadmon ke nishan aate hain
shauq ki had se zara dur nishana rakkho
justuju se nae imkan ke makan aate hain
koi ta'zir agar hai to chaDha do suli
kyon tamashe ko ye iqbaali bayan aate hain
aa to jate hain teri bazm-e-sataish mein amir
kaT kar hum bhi magar apni zaban aate hain
kya 'ajab dar hai 'saba' dam-o-diram dan bina
mangne shah-o-sipah hifz-o-aman aate hain
