vo naġhma bulbul-e-rañgīñ-navā ik baar ho jaa.e
kalī kī aañkh khul jaa.e chaman bedār ho jaa.e
nazar vo hai jo is kaun o makāñ se paar ho jaa.e
magar jab rū-e-tābāñ par paḌe bekār ho jaa.e
tabassum kī adā se zindagī bedār ho jaa.e
nazar se chheḌ de rag rag mirī hushyār ho jaa.e
tajallī chehra-e-zebā kī ho kuchh jām-e-rañgīñ kī
zamīñ se āsmāñ tak ālam-e-anvār ho jaa.e
tum us kāfir kā zauq-e-bandagī ab pūchhte kyā ho
jise tāq-e-haram bhī abrū-e-ḳhamdār ho jaa.e
sahar lā.egī kyā paiġhām-e-bedārī shabistāñ meñ
naqāb-e-ruḳh ulaT do ḳhud sahar bedār ho jaa.e
ye iqrār-e-ḳhudī hai dāva-e-īmān-o-dīñ kaisā
tirā iqrār jab hai ḳhud se bhī inkār ho jaa.e
nazar is husn par Thahre to āḳhir kis tarah Thahre
kabhī ḳhud phuul ban jaa.e kabhī ruḳhsār ho jaa.e
kuchh aisā dekh kar chup huuñ bahār-e-ālam-e-imkāñ
koī ik jaam pī kar jis tarah sarshār ho jaa.e
chalā jaatā huuñ hañstā kheltā mauj-e-havādis se
agar āsāniyāñ hoñ zindagī dushvār ho jaa.e
wo naghma bulbul-e-rangin-nawa ek bar ho jae
kali ki aankh khul jae chaman bedar ho jae
nazar wo hai jo is kaun o makan se par ho jae
magar jab ru-e-taban par paDe bekar ho jae
tabassum ki ada se zindagi bedar ho jae
nazar se chheD de rag rag meri hushyar ho jae
tajalli chehra-e-zeba ki ho kuchh jam-e-rangin ki
zamin se aasman tak aalam-e-anwar ho jae
tum us kafir ka zauq-e-bandagi ab puchhte kya ho
jise taq-e-haram bhi abru-e-KHamdar ho jae
sahar laegi kya paigham-e-bedari shabistan mein
naqab-e-ruKH ulaT do KHud sahar bedar ho jae
ye iqrar-e-KHudi hai dawa-e-iman-o-din kaisa
tera iqrar jab hai KHud se bhi inkar ho jae
nazar is husn par Thahre to aaKHir kis tarah Thahre
kabhi KHud phul ban jae kabhi ruKHsar ho jae
kuchh aisa dekh kar chup hun bahaar-e-alam-e-imkan
koi ek jam pi kar jis tarah sarshaar ho jae
chala jata hun hansta khelta mauj-e-hawadis se
agar aasaniyan hon zindagi dushwar ho jae
