ab bhala kya dekhte ho aab mein
ab bhalā kyā dekhte ho aab meñ
ġharq sab kuchh ho gayā girdāb meñ
lutf merī maut kā baḌh jaa.e so
zahr aur Daalā gayā zahrāb meñ
ho ga.ī tab nuur se nafrat mujhe
daaġh dekhe jab dil-e-mahtāb meñ
maiñ samajhtā thā jinheñ shīrīñ-dahan
sar-ba-sar bhīge mile tezāb meñ
gūñje hī kaise bhalā sāz-e-jigar
zañg hī jab lag gayā mizrāb meñ
dekhne ke baad saare qā.ede
aib phir dekhe ga.e eraab meñ
zehn meñ koī ḳhayāl aatā nahīñ
hai ravānī hī nahīñ a.asāb meñ
ik ḳhudā se hī tavaqqo thī faqat
nok nikal aa.e magar mehrāb meñ
ḳhāsiyat hai in adab vāloñ meñ ik
maar dete hai adab ādāb meñ
ab bhala kya dekhte ho aab mein
gharq sab kuchh ho gaya girdab mein
lutf meri maut ka baDh jae so
zahr aur Dala gaya zahrab mein
ho gai tab nur se nafrat mujhe
dagh dekhe jab dil-e-mahtab mein
main samajhta tha jinhen shirin-dahan
sar-ba-sar bhige mile tezab mein
gunje hi kaise bhala saz-e-jigar
zang hi jab lag gaya mizrab mein
dekhne ke baad sare qaede
aib phir dekhe gae erab mein
zehn mein koi KHayal aata nahin
hai rawani hi nahin aasab mein
ek KHuda se hi tawaqqo thi faqat
nok nikal aae magar mehrab mein
KHasiyat hai in adab walon mein ek
mar dete hai adab aadab mein
