phir rah dikha mujhko ai mashrab-e-rindana
phir raah dikhā mujh ko ai mashrab-e-rindāna
kuchh bahs nahīñ is se ka.aba hai ki but-ḳhāna
ḳham hai na subūhī hai shīsha hai na paimāna
kyā jaane kahāñ ġham hai tābānī-e-mai-ḳhāna
is tarah bhī hotī hai tash.hīr-e-vafā aksar
phirtī hai sabā le kar ḳhākistar-e-parvāna
kī vus.at-e-sahrā kī qadmoñ ne pazīrā.ī
mujh sā na koī hogā shā.ista-e-vīrāna
har riñd-e-balā-kash par girtī hai sar-e-mahfil
barq-e-nigah-e-sāqī paimāna-ba-paimāna
irfān-e-talab kahiye yā tark-e-talab us ko
manzil kā shanāsā bhī manzil se hai begāna
kuchh ḳhār-e-chaman kā bhī ho zikr chaman-sāzo
ġhunchoñ kā bayāñ tā-kai afsāna-dar-afsāna
farzāngī-e-dil bhī kuchh chāhiye vahshat meñ
dīvāna sar-e-mahfil ban jaa.e na dīvāna
thī sham-e-farozāñ kī tarġhīb-e-jigar-sozī
yā aag meñ ḳhud apnī jal uTThā hai parvāna
asrār do-ālam ke khulte haiñ 'razā' dil par
takvīn-e-azal kā hai mahram dil-e-dīvāna
phir rah dikha mujh ko ai mashrab-e-rindana
kuchh bahs nahin is se kaba hai ki but-KHana
KHam hai na subuhi hai shisha hai na paimana
kya jaane kahan gham hai tabani-e-mai-KHana
is tarah bhi hoti hai tashhir-e-wafa aksar
phirti hai saba le kar KHakistar-e-parwana
ki wusat-e-sahra ki qadmon ne pazirai
mujh sa na koi hoga shaista-e-virana
har rind-e-bala-kash par girti hai sar-e-mahfil
barq-e-nigah-e-saqi paimana-ba-paimana
irfan-e-talab kahiye ya tark-e-talab us ko
manzil ka shanasa bhi manzil se hai begana
kuchh KHar-e-chaman ka bhi ho zikr chaman-sazo
ghunchon ka bayan ta-kai afsana-dar-afsana
farzangi-e-dil bhi kuchh chahiye wahshat mein
diwana sar-e-mahfil ban jae na diwana
thi sham-e-farozan ki targhib-e-jigar-sozi
ya aag mein KHud apni jal uTTha hai parwana
asrar do-alam ke khulte hain 'raza' dil par
takwin-e-azal ka hai mahram dil-e-diwana
