pahlū-o-pusht-o-sīna-o-ruḳhsār aa.ina

hai razm-gāh-e-husn kā ye chaar aa.ina

kaf aa.ina bar aa.ina ruḳhsār aa.ina

hai sar se paañv tak vo sitamgār aa.ina

haTtā nahīñ jo sāmne se us ke raat din

ham se sivā hai tālib-e-dīdār aa.ina

ye to mirā raqīb hai maiñ māntā nahīñ

kyuuñ dekhtā hai aap ko har baar aa.ina

ruḳh kā hai aks dil meñ to ruḳh meñ hai dil kā aks

hai aa.ine ke sāmne har baar aa.ina

ḳhalvat meñ us ke nuur se aalam hai tuur kā

haiñ āb-o-tāb se dar-o-dīvār aa.ina

ġhash khā ke gir paḌe na kahīñ ro.ab-e-husn se

is vāste hai pusht ba-dīvār aa.ina

kis meñ hai āb-o-tāb sivā dekh lījiye

ik baar us kā chehra aur ik baar aa.ina

ruḳh kā aur us kā ho gayā ik baar faisla

achchhā huā ki maan gayā haar aa.ina

labrez hai shuā-e-ruḳh-e-dil-faroz se

le āb-e-husn-e-sāġhar-e-sarshār aa.ina

'parvīñ' jahāñ meñ us kī jhapaktī nahīñ palak

hairat kā aap kartā hai iqrār aa.ina

pahlu-o-pusht-o-sina-o-ruKHsar aaina

hai razm-gah-e-husn ka ye chaar aaina

kaf aaina bar aaina ruKHsar aaina

hai sar se panw tak wo sitamgar aaina

haTta nahin jo samne se us ke raat din

hum se siwa hai talib-e-didar aaina

ye to mera raqib hai main manta nahin

kyun dekhta hai aap ko har bar aaina

ruKH ka hai aks dil mein to ruKH mein hai dil ka aks

hai aaine ke samne har bar aaina

KHalwat mein us ke nur se aalam hai tur ka

hain aab-o-tab se dar-o-diwar aaina

ghash kha ke gir paDe na kahin roab-e-husn se

is waste hai pusht ba-diwar aaina

kis mein hai aab-o-tab siwa dekh lijiye

ek bar us ka chehra aur ek bar aaina

ruKH ka aur us ka ho gaya ek bar faisla

achchha hua ki man gaya haar aaina

labrez hai shua-e-ruKH-e-dil-faroz se

le aab-e-husn-e-saghar-e-sarshaar aaina

'parwin' jahan mein us ki jhapakti nahin palak

hairat ka aap karta hai iqrar aaina
