kasrat-e-jalwa ko aaina-e-wahdat samjho

kasrat-e-jalva ko ā.īna-e-vahdat samjho

jis kī sūrat nazar aa.e vahī sūrat samjho

ġham ko ġham aur na musībat ko musībat samjho

jo dar-e-dost se mil jaa.e ġhanīmat samjho

jhuk ke jo saiñkaḌoñ fitnoñ ko jagā saktī haiñ

vo nigāheñ agar uTTheñ to qayāmat samjho

nahīñ hote haiñ riyā-kārī ke sajde mujh se

maiñ agar sar na jhukā.ūñ to ibādat samjho

rafta rafta mirī ḳhuddārī se vāqif hoge

abhī kuchh din mire andāz-e-mohabbat samjho

jalva dekhoge kahāñ dil ke alāva apnā

mire TuuTe hue ā.īne kī qismat samjho

kam nahīñ duur asīrī meñ sahārā ye bhī

qaid meñ yād-e-nasheman ko ġhanīmat samjho

ḳhuub samjhāyā hai ye kātib-e-qismat ne hameñ

jo mayassar ho jahāñ meñ use qismat samjho

ham-jafāoñ ko bhī andāz-e-ināyat samjheñ

aur tum shukr-e-sitam ko bhī shikāyat samjho

merī āñkhoñ meñ abhī ashk bahut baaqī haiñ

tum jo mahfil meñ charāġhoñ kī zarūrat samjho

ai 'sabā' kyuuñ ho dar-e-ġhair pe tauhīn-talab

apne hī dar ko hamesha dar-e-daulat samjho

kasrat-e-jalwa ko aaina-e-wahdat samjho

jis ki surat nazar aae wahi surat samjho

gham ko gham aur na musibat ko musibat samjho

jo dar-e-dost se mil jae ghanimat samjho

jhuk ke jo sainkaDon fitnon ko jaga sakti hain

wo nigahen agar uTThen to qayamat samjho

nahin hote hain riya-kari ke sajde mujh se

main agar sar na jhukaun to ibaadat samjho

rafta rafta meri KHuddari se waqif hoge

abhi kuchh din mere andaz-e-mohabbat samjho

jalwa dekhoge kahan dil ke alawa apna

mere TuTe hue aaine ki qismat samjho

kam nahin dur asiri mein sahaara ye bhi

qaid mein yaad-e-nasheman ko ghanimat samjho

KHub samjhaya hai ye katib-e-qismat ne hamein

jo mayassar ho jahan mein use qismat samjho

ham-jafaon ko bhi andaz-e-inayat samjhen

aur tum shukr-e-sitam ko bhi shikayat samjho

meri aankhon mein abhi ashk bahut baqi hain

tum jo mahfil mein charaghon ki zarurat samjho

ai 'saba' kyun ho dar-e-ghair pe tauhin-talab

apne hi dar ko hamesha dar-e-daulat samjho
