KHafi raha ya jali aalam-e-shuhud mein tha
ḳhafī rahā yā jalī ālam-e-shuhūd meñ thā
maiñ amr-e-kun se bhī pahle kisī vajūd meñ thā
kisī sadā ne barañgeḳhta kiyā mujh ko
vagarna maiñ bhī isī halqa-e-ḳhumūd meñ thā
mujhe shu.ūr diyā be.asat-e-payambar ne
phir is ke baad maiñ allāh ke junūd meñ thā
mujhe husain ne zarre se māhtāb kiyā
maiñ be-nishān tamāshā-e-hast-o-būd meñ thā
na jidd-o-jahd-e-musalsal ne soz-o-sāz-e-hayāt

KHafi raha ya jali aalam-e-shuhud mein tha
main amr-e-kun se bhi pahle kisi wajud mein tha
kisi sada ne barangeKHta kiya mujh ko
wagarna main bhi isi halqa-e-KHumud mein tha
mujhe shuur diya beasat-e-payambar ne
phir is ke baad main allah ke junud mein tha
mujhe husain ne zarre se mahtab kiya
main be-nishan tamasha-e-hast-o-bud mein tha
na jidd-o-jahd-e-musalsal ne soz-o-saz-e-hayat
misal-e-shajr zamin-bos main jumud mein tha
andheri raat mein nudrat mili sitare ko
tamam roz wo Duba hua kabud mein tha
talash-e-manzil-e-hasti mein KHak-bazi ki
mera maqam magar qila-e-umud mein tha
mujhe qayam ke qabil kiya irade ne
main ek umr talak haalat-e-quud mein tha
wo karr-o-far-e-taKHayyul ke nashiran to the
magar har ek numaish mein ya numud mein tha
main madd-o-jazr-e-taKHayyul ko us ke nam karun
ki jis ka zikr hamesha mere darud mein tha
wo taKHt-e-KHak pe baiTha wahi qalandar hai
ki jis ke samne jibril bhi sujud mein tha
mata-e-qafila-e-ishq jab luTi 'naqqash'
wo mere mulk-e-sitam-kesh ki hudud mein tha
