dil ka sukun aankh ka tara kise kahen
dil kā sukūn aañkh kā taarā kise kaheñ
ye sochnā paḌā hai ki apnā kise kaheñ
ye shor-e-inqalāb ye nāqūs ye azaañ
hañgāma kaun sā hai tamāsha kise kaheñ
rahbāniyat kā jism se fastā.iyat kī ruuh
kis ko rafīq ḳhuun kā pyāsā kise kaheñ
sab milte-julte chehre haiñ dushman bhī dost bhī
qātil kise batā.eñ masīhā kise kaheñ
har zarra-e-haqīr hai ham-dosh mehr-o-māh
is pattharoñ ke Dher meñ hiirā kise kaheñ
itnā shu.ūr de hameñ ḳhallāq ḳhair-o-shar
ḳhār-o-zabūñ hai kaun farishta kise kaheñ
milnā thā jo nasīb se vo mil gayā 'ziyā'
hasrat kise batā.eñ tamannā kise kaheñ
dil ka sukun aankh ka tara kise kahen
ye sochna paDa hai ki apna kise kahen
ye shor-e-inqalab ye naqus ye azan
hangama kaun sa hai tamasha kise kahen
rahbaniyat ka jism se fastaiyat ki ruh
kis ko rafiq KHun ka pyasa kise kahen
sab milte-julte chehre hain dushman bhi dost bhi
qatil kise bataen masiha kise kahen
har zarra-e-haqir hai ham-dosh mehr-o-mah
is pattharon ke Dher mein hira kise kahen
itna shuur de hamein KHallaq KHair-o-shar
KHar-o-zabun hai kaun farishta kise kahen
milna tha jo nasib se wo mil gaya 'ziya'
hasrat kise bataen tamanna kise kahen
