ishq ne hum ko junun-asar aisa kar diya

ishq ne ham ko junūñ-āsār aisā kar diyā

basta-e-sāhil bhī rakkhā aur dariyā kar diyā

is gulistān-e-gumāñ meñ ham bhī the mānind-e-ḳhvāb

garmī-e-andesha ne ham ko bhī sahrā kar diyā

dīda-e-ḳhush-bīñ kī ye e.ajāz-farmā.ī to dekh

kaise mub.ham ḳhāl-o-ḳhat ko ek chehrā kar diyā

ye jahāñ pinhāñ thā ik be-manzarī kī ḳhaak meñ

ham ne chashm-e-shauq se dekhā to duniyā kar diyā

ruashnī-e-tab.a ne raushan kiyā hai ik jahāñ

aur mujhe is ā.ina-ḳhāne meñ tanhā kar diyā

jab kabhī shab-zād lamhe gherne aa.e hameñ

ham ne sham-e-jāñ jalā.ī aur saverā kar diyā

ye karāmat bhī ajab us kī masīhā.ī meñ hai

jo ba-zāhir bhar diyā vo zaḳhm gahrā kar diyā

muntazir thā vaqt so ham ne ba-andāz-e-suḳhan

aarzū kā ik jahān-e-tāza paidā kar diyā

ishq ne hum ko junun-asar aisa kar diya

basta-e-sahil bhi rakkha aur dariya kar diya

is gulistan-e-guman mein hum bhi the manind-e-KHwab

garmi-e-andesha ne hum ko bhi sahra kar diya

dida-e-KHush-bin ki ye eajaz-farmai to dekh

kaise mubham KHal-o-KHat ko ek chehra kar diya

ye jahan pinhan tha ek be-manzari ki KHak mein

hum ne chashm-e-shauq se dekha to duniya kar diya

ruashni-e-taba ne raushan kiya hai ek jahan

aur mujhe is aaina-KHane mein tanha kar diya

jab kabhi shab-zad lamhe gherne aae hamein

hum ne sham-e-jaan jalai aur sawera kar diya

ye karamat bhi ajab us ki masihai mein hai

jo ba-zahir bhar diya wo zaKHm gahra kar diya

muntazir tha waqt so hum ne ba-andaz-e-suKHan

aarzu ka ek jahan-e-taza paida kar diya
