aankh mein kitne tilismat-e-jahan paoge
aañkh meñ kitne tilismāt-e-jahāñ pāoge
ḳhuun rañgīñ hai to sau rañg yahāñ pāoge
ho farāġhat to zarā jhāḌū ḳhayāloñ ke shajar
shāḳh-sāroñ pe bahut barg-e-ḳhizāñ pāoge
yuuñ sambhāle na phiro dil meñ shikasta shīshe
kirchiyāñ bikhrīñ to rag rag meñ ravāñ pāoge
mauj-e-reg-e-daraḳhshāñ ke ta.āqub meñ raho
in sarāboñ haiñ meñ paanī kā nishāñ pāoge
ye ḳharāba hī sahī is se na bāhar niklo
chhoḌ kar dil ko kahīñ phir na amaañ pāoge
rishta-e-tār-e-nazar se hai ujāloñ kā bharam
aañkh jhapkī to koī aur samāñ pāoge
saañs uljhī huī aatī hai to hai kis kī ḳhatā
aag andar hai to andar hī dhuāñ pāoge
kis qadar shor hai logoñ se bharī galiyoñ meñ
ġhaur se dekho bahut ḳhālī makāñ pāoge
dasht-e-dil hī se koī chashma nikālo 'shāhīñ'
ḳhushk-sālī meñ yahāñ paanī kahāñ pāoge
aankh mein kitne tilismat-e-jahan paoge
KHun rangin hai to sau rang yahan paoge
ho faraghat to zara jhaDu KHayalon ke shajar
shaKH-saron pe bahut barg-e-KHizan paoge
yun sambhaale na phiro dil mein shikasta shishe
kirchiyan bikhrin to rag rag mein rawan paoge
mauj-e-reg-e-daraKHshan ke taaqub mein raho
in sarabon hain mein pani ka nishan paoge
ye KHaraba hi sahi is se na bahar niklo
chhoD kar dil ko kahin phir na aman paoge
rishta-e-tar-e-nazar se hai ujalon ka bharam
aankh jhapki to koi aur saman paoge
sans uljhi hui aati hai to hai kis ki KHata
aag andar hai to andar hi dhuan paoge
kis qadar shor hai logon se bhari galiyon mein
ghaur se dekho bahut KHali makan paoge
dasht-e-dil hi se koi chashma nikalo 'shahin'
KHushk-sali mein yahan pani kahan paoge
