aasman bijliyan gira deta

āsmāñ bijliyāñ girā detā

maiñ agar dil se bad-du'ā detā

saarī duniyā hī raakh ho jaatī

vo jo parde sabhī uThā detā

shukr hai ham bhī peḌ rakhte haiñ

varna mausam hameñ jalā detā

maiñ bhī sab kuchh ḳharīd saktā thā

khoTe sikke agar chalā detā

zulf-e-barham sañvārtā to koī

ḳhud ko maiñ aa.ina banā detā

'azm merā pahāḌ jaisā thā

varna dariyā mujhe bahā detā

ham bhī muddat ke bik chuke hote

koī bolī agar lagā detā

zulm kī ek hī adā kyuuñ hai

dard har roz ik nayā detā

tum agar dil pe haath rakh dete

dil se 'āzar' tumheñ du'ā detā

aasman bijliyan gira deta

main agar dil se bad-du'a deta

sari duniya hi rakh ho jati

wo jo parde sabhi uTha deta

shukr hai hum bhi peD rakhte hain

warna mausam hamein jala deta

main bhi sab kuchh KHarid sakta tha

khoTe sikke agar chala deta

zulf-e-barham sanwarta to koi

KHud ko main aaina bana deta

'azm mera pahaD jaisa tha

warna dariya mujhe baha deta

hum bhi muddat ke bik chuke hote

koi boli agar laga deta

zulm ki ek hi ada kyun hai

dard har roz ek naya deta

tum agar dil pe hath rakh dete

dil se 'azar' tumhein du'a deta
