hameñ to mai-kade kā ye nizām achchhā nahīñ lagtā
na ho sab ke liye gardish meñ jaam achchhā nahīñ lagtā
kabhī tanhā.ī kī ḳhvāhish ye hotī hai ki logoñ kā
payām achchhā nahīñ lagtā salām achchhā nahīñ lagtā
ḳhudā se lau lagā.eñ yā ḳhudā.ī se rahe rishta
faqat apnī ḳhudī kā ehtirām achchhā nahīñ lagtā
jabīn-e-pur-shikan ḳhāsān-e-ālam kī nahīñ bhātī
magar ye bhī hai ġhauġhā-e-āvām achchhā nahīñ lagtā
na ḳhushbū pairahan kī hai na zulfoñ kī na bātoñ kī
hameñ ye jalva-e-bālā-e-bām achchhā nahīñ lagtā
mayassar ho to qadre lutf bhī nemat hai yaañ yaaro
kisī kā vāda-e-aish-e-davām achchhā nahīñ lagtā
ye sastī lazzatoñ sastī siyāsat ke pujārī haiñ
hameñ ahbāb kā saudā-e-ḳhām achchhā nahīñ lagtā
jahāñ harkat nahīñ hotī vahāñ barkat nahīñ hotī
'surūr' ab vādi-e-gul meñ qayām achchhā nahīñ lagtā
hamein to mai-kade ka ye nizam achchha nahin lagta
na ho sab ke liye gardish mein jam achchha nahin lagta
kabhi tanhai ki KHwahish ye hoti hai ki logon ka
payam achchha nahin lagta salam achchha nahin lagta
KHuda se lau lagaen ya KHudai se rahe rishta
faqat apni KHudi ka ehtiram achchha nahin lagta
jabin-e-pur-shikan KHasan-e-alam ki nahin bhati
magar ye bhi hai ghaugha-e-awam achchha nahin lagta
na KHushbu pairahan ki hai na zulfon ki na baaton ki
hamein ye jalwa-e-baala-e-baam achchha nahin lagta
mayassar ho to qadre lutf bhi nemat hai yan yaro
kisi ka wada-e-aish-e-dawam achchha nahin lagta
ye sasti lazzaton sasti siyasat ke pujari hain
hamein ahbab ka sauda-e-KHam achchha nahin lagta
jahan harkat nahin hoti wahan barkat nahin hoti
'surur' ab wadi-e-gul mein qayam achchha nahin lagta
