pas-e-tauba hadīs-e-mutrib-o-paimāna kahte haiñ

ye ik bhūlā huā par aaj ham afsāna kahte haiñ

koī ḳhūn-e-tamannā ho jhalak aatā hai ā.ankhoñ meñ

isī ko ittihād-e-bāda-o-paimāna kahte haiñ

tabāhī dil kī dekhī hai jo ham ne apnī ā.ankhoñ se

ho ab kaisī hī bastī ham use vīrāna kahte haiñ

fanā hone meñ soz-e-sham.a kī minnat-kashī kaisī

jale jo aag meñ apnī use parvāna kahte haiñ

jafā par sabr sīkhā hai vafā par jaan jaatī hai

yahī hai aur kis ko tohmat-e-mardāna kahte haiñ

tumhārī zulf-e-pechāñ meñ rahā kyūñ-kar dil-e-vahshī

tuḌā le jaa.e jo zanjīr use dīvāna kahte haiñ

ma.āz-allāh terā husn terī bazm-e-ishrat meñ

ye vo mahfil hai jis meñ sham.a ko parvāna kahte haiñ

yahāñ to jaan tak de dī 'nazar' pādāsh-e-ulfat meñ

magar bedād-gar baaqī abhī jurmāna kahte haiñ

pas-e-tauba hadis-e-mutrib-o-paimana kahte hain

ye ek bhula hua par aaj hum afsana kahte hain

koi KHun-e-tamanna ho jhalak aata hai aaankhon mein

isi ko ittihad-e-baada-o-paimana kahte hain

tabahi dil ki dekhi hai jo hum ne apni aaankhon se

ho ab kaisi hi basti hum use virana kahte hain

fana hone mein soz-e-shama ki minnat-kashi kaisi

jale jo aag mein apni use parwana kahte hain

jafa par sabr sikha hai wafa par jaan jati hai

yahi hai aur kis ko tohmat-e-mardana kahte hain

tumhaari zulf-e-pechan mein raha kyun-kar dil-e-wahshi

tuDa le jae jo zanjir use diwana kahte hain

maaz-allah tera husn teri bazm-e-ishrat mein

ye wo mahfil hai jis mein shama ko parwana kahte hain

yahan to jaan tak de di 'nazar' padash-e-ulfat mein

magar bedad-gar baqi abhi jurmana kahte hain
