aaj bhī 'siprā' us kī ḳhushbū mill mālik le jaatā hai

maiñ lohe kī naaf se paidā jo kastūrī kartā huuñ

aaj bhi 'sipra' us ki KHushbu mill malik le jata hai

main lohe ki naf se paida jo kasturi karta hun

jo kar rahā hai dūsroñ ke zehn kā ilaaj

vo shaḳhs ḳhud bahut baḌā zehnī marīz hai

jo kar raha hai dusron ke zehn ka ilaj

wo shaKHs KHud bahut baDa zehni mariz hai

kitnā buad hai mere fan aur peshe ke mābain

bāhar dānish-var huuñ lekin mill meñ oil-man

kitna buad hai mere fan aur peshe ke mabain

bahar danish-war hun lekin mill mein oil-man

shāyad yūñhī simaT sakeñ ghar kī zarūrateñ

'tanvīr' maañ ke haath meñ apnī kamā.ī de

shayad yunhi simaT saken ghar ki zaruraten

'tanwir' man ke hath mein apni kamai de

terī to aan baḌh ga.ī mujh ko navāz kar

lekin mirā vaqār ye imdād khā ga.ī

teri to aan baDh gai mujh ko nawaz kar

lekin mera waqar ye imdad kha gai
