bazm-e-insan mein bhi ek raat basar kar dekho

bazm-e-insāñ meñ bhī ik raat basar kar dekho

ek baar apnī zamīñ par bhī utar kar dekho

is ufuq par na agar jannat-e-mau.ūda milī

is ufuq tak bhī jo chāho to safar kar dekho

koī Duubī huī kashtī hai ki sāhil kā nishāñ

apnī sochoñ ke samundar se ubhar kar dekho

ḳhud ko dekho mire me.aar ke ā.īne meñ

ik zarā mujh pe ye ehsān bhī dhar kar dekho

mausam-e-gul hai to kirdār-e-chaman kyuuñ badle

aag phūloñ ko to shabnam ko sharar kar dekho

har zamāne meñ bujhe to nahīñ rahte ḳhurshed

gardisho aaj mirī shab ko sahar kar dekho

bazm-e-insan mein bhi ek raat basar kar dekho

ek bar apni zamin par bhi utar kar dekho

is ufuq par na agar jannat-e-mauuda mili

is ufuq tak bhi jo chaho to safar kar dekho

koi Dubi hui kashti hai ki sahil ka nishan

apni sochon ke samundar se ubhar kar dekho

KHud ko dekho mere mear ke aaine mein

ek zara mujh pe ye ehsan bhi dhar kar dekho

mausam-e-gul hai to kirdar-e-chaman kyun badle

aag phulon ko to shabnam ko sharar kar dekho

har zamane mein bujhe to nahin rahte KHurshed

gardisho aaj meri shab ko sahar kar dekho
