barq betab hai tum ruKH ki chamak to dekho

barq betāb hai tum ruḳh kī chamak to dekho

apnī āñkhoñ kī qasam nok-e-palak to dekho

chashm-e-maigūñ kī qasam mast nigāhoñ kī qasam

daur-e-sāġhar kā mazā sub.h talak to dekho

shāḳh-e-gul kī hai qasam merī rag-e-jāñ kī qasam

tum zarā apnī kamar kī ye lachak to dekho

mere zaḳhmoñ kī qasam shor-e-mohabbat kī qasam

apne husn-e-namak-afshāñ kā namak to dekho

dard-e-furqat kī qasam shām-e-musībat kī qasam

lagī 'tanvīr' palak se na palak to dekho

barq betab hai tum ruKH ki chamak to dekho

apni aankhon ki qasam nok-e-palak to dekho

chashm-e-maigun ki qasam mast nigahon ki qasam

daur-e-saghar ka maza subh talak to dekho

shaKH-e-gul ki hai qasam meri rag-e-jaan ki qasam

tum zara apni kamar ki ye lachak to dekho

mere zaKHmon ki qasam shor-e-mohabbat ki qasam

apne husn-e-namak-afshan ka namak to dekho

dard-e-furqat ki qasam sham-e-musibat ki qasam

lagi 'tanwir' palak se na palak to dekho
