halqe nahin hain zulf ke halqe hain jal ke
halqe nahīñ haiñ zulf ke halqe haiñ jaal ke
haañ ai nigāh-e-shauq zarā dekh-bhāl ke
pahuñche haiñ tā-kamar jo tire gesū-e-rasā
ma.anī ye haiñ kamar bhī barābar hai baal ke
bos-o-kanār-o-vasl-e-hasīnāñ hai ḳhuub shaġhl
kamtar buzurg hoñge ḳhilāf is ḳhayāl ke
qāmat se tere sāne-e-qudrat ne ai hasīñ
dikhlā diyā hai hashr ko sāñche meñ Dhaal ke
shān-e-dimāġh ishq ke jalve se ye baḌhī
rakhtā hai hosh bhī qadam apne sambhāl ke
zīnat muqaddama hai musībat kā dahr meñ
sab sham.a ko jalāte haiñ sāñche meñ Dhaal ke
hastī ke haq ke sāmne kyā asl-e-īn-o-āñ
putle ye sab haiñ aap ke vahm-o-ḳhayāl ke
talvār le ke uThtā hai har tālib-e-faroġh
daur-e-falak meñ haiñ ye ishāre hilāl ke
pechīda zindagī ke karo tum muqaddame
dikhlā hī degī maut natīja nikāl ke
halqe nahin hain zulf ke halqe hain jal ke
han ai nigah-e-shauq zara dekh-bhaal ke
pahunche hain ta-kamar jo tere gesu-e-rasa
mani ye hain kamar bhi barabar hai baal ke
bos-o-kanar-o-wasl-e-hasinan hai KHub shaghl
kamtar buzurg honge KHilaf is KHayal ke
qamat se tere sane-e-qudrat ne ai hasin
dikhla diya hai hashr ko sanche mein Dhaal ke
shan-e-dimagh ishq ke jalwe se ye baDhi
rakhta hai hosh bhi qadam apne sambhaal ke
zinat muqaddama hai musibat ka dahr mein
sab shama ko jalate hain sanche mein Dhaal ke
hasti ke haq ke samne kya asl-e-in-o-an
putle ye sab hain aap ke wahm-o-KHayal ke
talwar le ke uThta hai har talib-e-farogh
daur-e-falak mein hain ye ishaare hilal ke
pechida zindagi ke karo tum muqaddame
dikhla hi degi maut natija nikal ke
