aks-e-raushan tera aaina-e-jaan mein rakkha
aks-e-raushan tirā ā.īna-e-jāñ meñ rakkhā
ham ne tasvīr ko hairat ke jahāñ meñ rakkhā
kaun māyūs tirī bazm-e-ināyat se uThā
tere ikrām ne kis kis ko gumāñ meñ rakkhā
koī mad.hosh na ho sā.at-e-gul-bosī meñ
us ne yuuñ phuul ko kāñToñ kī amaañ meñ rakkhā
vo samajhtā thā ki haiñ sach ke ḳharīdār bahut
rah gayā maal sabhī us kī dukāñ meñ rakkhā
yaad ham aa na sake jashn-e-bahārāñ meñ use
ham-safar jis ne hameñ ahd-e-ḳhizāñ meñ rakkhā
ik parinda bhī nahīñ peḌ pe baaqī 'gulzār'
tiir sayyād ne kis vaqt kamāñ meñ rakkhā
aks-e-raushan tera aaina-e-jaan mein rakkha
hum ne taswir ko hairat ke jahan mein rakkha
kaun mayus teri bazm-e-inayat se uTha
tere ikram ne kis kis ko guman mein rakkha
koi madhosh na ho saat-e-gul-bosi mein
us ne yun phul ko kanTon ki aman mein rakkha
wo samajhta tha ki hain sach ke KHaridar bahut
rah gaya mal sabhi us ki dukan mein rakkha
yaad hum aa na sake jashn-e-bahaaran mein use
ham-safar jis ne hamein ahd-e-KHizan mein rakkha
ek parinda bhi nahin peD pe baqi 'gulzar'
tir sayyaad ne kis waqt kaman mein rakkha
