meri nazar mein dosto jis shahr ke gulzar hain
merī nazar meñ dosto jis shahr ke gulzār haiñ
sabza baḌā sarkash hai vaañ aur sard ḳhush-raftār haiñ
shāḳheñ haiñ vaañ ārāsta aur gul haiñ vaañ nau-ḳhāsta
pyāle haiñ jin ke madh-bhare aur pairahan zar-kār haiñ
har har qadam par ḳhūb-rū ārām-e-jāñ aur kām-jū
āñkhoñ meñ ġhunchoñ kī chaTak chehre ġhazab gulnār haiñ
jitne ye kam-āmez haiñ itne hī shauq-añgez haiñ
zāhir meñ jitne saḳht haiñ itne hī kam-āzār haiñ
un kī nigah kā sā.iqa kartā hai kār-e-lā.iqā
chakkheñ jo us kā zā.iqa sātoñ samundar paar haiñ
harf-e-ġhalat dīn-e-kuhan saare hijābāt-e-badan
āzād haiñ sab mard-o-zan sab aadmī sab yaar haiñ
jaage hue haiñ mai-kade har kufr-o-īmāñ se pare
bikhrī huī tasbīh hai TuuTe hue zunnār haiñ
meri nazar mein dosto jis shahr ke gulzar hain
sabza baDa sarkash hai wan aur sard KHush-raftar hain
shaKHen hain wan aarasta aur gul hain wan nau-KHasta
pyale hain jin ke madh-bhare aur pairahan zar-kar hain
har har qadam par KHub-ru aaram-e-jaan aur kaam-ju
aankhon mein ghunchon ki chaTak chehre ghazab gulnar hain
jitne ye kam-amez hain itne hi shauq-angez hain
zahir mein jitne saKHt hain itne hi kam-azar hain
un ki nigah ka saiqa karta hai kar-e-laiqa
chakkhen jo us ka zaiqa saton samundar par hain
harf-e-ghalat din-e-kuhan sare hijabaat-e-badan
aazad hain sab mard-o-zan sab aadmi sab yar hain
jage hue hain mai-kade har kufr-o-iman se pare
bikhri hui tasbih hai TuTe hue zunnar hain
