rah-e-talab mein hamein gham pe gham nazar aae

rah-e-talab meñ hameñ ġham pe ġham nazar aa.e

ba-qadr-e-zauq magar phir bhī kam nazar aa.e

vahīñ vahīñ mirā zauq-e-sujūd machlā hai

jahāñ jahāñ tire naqsh-e-qadam nazar aa.e

mire shu.ūr kī āñkhoñ meñ aa ga.e aañsū

mujhe asīr-e-alam jab sanam nazar aa.e

tirī talāsh meñ ye bhī maqām aayā hai

jidhar nigāh uThī sirf ham nazar aa.e

vo jalva-bār haiñ dil ke nigār-ḳhāne meñ

jo merī chashm-e-tamāshā ko kam nazar aa.e

rah-e-talab mein hamein gham pe gham nazar aae

ba-qadr-e-zauq magar phir bhi kam nazar aae

wahin wahin mera zauq-e-sujud machla hai

jahan jahan tere naqsh-e-qadam nazar aae

mere shuur ki aankhon mein aa gae aansu

mujhe asir-e-alam jab sanam nazar aae

teri talash mein ye bhi maqam aaya hai

jidhar nigah uThi sirf hum nazar aae

wo jalwa-bar hain dil ke nigar-KHane mein

jo meri chashm-e-tamasha ko kam nazar aae
