ek laghzish mein dar-e-pir-e-mughan tak pahunche

ek laġhzish meñ dar-e-pīr-e-muġhāñ tak pahuñche

ham bhaTakte the kahāñ aur kahāñ tak pahuñche

lutf to jab hai ki ai mahram-e-husn-e-guftār

ho koī baat magar husn-e-butāñ tak pahuñche

ye bhī kuchh kam nahīñ ai rah-rav-e-iqlīm-e-yaqīñ

ham ḳharābāt-nashīñ husn-e-gumāñ tak pahuñche

tai huī manzil-e-ḳhārā-shikanī do din meñ

log sadiyoñ meñ dil-e-shīshagarāñ tak pahuñche

zauq-e-shīrīni-e-guftār fuzūñ aur huā

zahr jitne the vo sab ahl-e-zabāñ tak pahuñche

vo kahāñ dard jo dil meñ tire mahdūd rahā

dard vo hai jo dil-e-kaun-o-makāñ tak pahuñche

aag bhaḌkī hai to ab kaun ye kah saktā hai

shola-e-dāman-e-tahzīb kahāñ tak pahuñche

māvarā lafz o bayāñ se hai vo husn-e-azalī

kam-nazar marhala-e-lafz-o-bayāñ tak pahuñche

faiz-e-mehrāb-e-ġhazal hai ki 'ravish' ahl-e-nazar

husn-o-rānā.i-e-andāz-e-bayāñ tak pahuñche

ek laghzish mein dar-e-pir-e-mughan tak pahunche

hum bhaTakte the kahan aur kahan tak pahunche

lutf to jab hai ki ai mahram-e-husn-e-guftar

ho koi baat magar husn-e-butan tak pahunche

ye bhi kuchh kam nahin ai rah-raw-e-iqlim-e-yaqin

hum KHarabaat-nashin husn-e-guman tak pahunche

tai hui manzil-e-KHara-shikani do din mein

log sadiyon mein dil-e-shishagaran tak pahunche

zauq-e-shirini-e-guftar fuzun aur hua

zahr jitne the wo sab ahl-e-zaban tak pahunche

wo kahan dard jo dil mein tere mahdud raha

dard wo hai jo dil-e-kaun-o-makan tak pahunche

aag bhaDki hai to ab kaun ye kah sakta hai

shola-e-daman-e-tahzib kahan tak pahunche

mawara lafz o bayan se hai wo husn-e-azali

kam-nazar marhala-e-lafz-o-bayan tak pahunche

faiz-e-mehrab-e-ghazal hai ki 'rawish' ahl-e-nazar

husn-o-ranai-e-andaz-e-bayan tak pahunche
