rah gai wo nigah-e-naz qalb o jigar mein baiTh kar
rah ga.ī vo nigāh-e-nāz qalb o jigar meñ baiTh kar
dil meñ latīf sī ḳhalish aañkh hai āñ.suoñ se tar
raat kī niiñd uḌ ga.ī din kā sukūn luT gayā
terī nigāh-e-nāz ne kar diyā dil pe kyā asar
sun na sake usī ko vo kah na sakā usī ko maiñ
aish kī dāstāñ meñ jo haal thā ġham kā muḳhtasar
shāḳh se gul jo gir paḌā dil se lagā ke rakh liyā
daur-e-ḳhizāñ bhī dekh luuñ phuul chune haiñ umr bhar
koī agar nihāl hai koī ḳharāb-hāl hai
zarf ke saath saath hai un kī nigāh kā asar
rañg-e-chaman ko dekh kar 'ārif'-e-ḳhasta-dil ye kyā
phūloñ pe hai kabhī nazar kāñToñ pe hai kabhī nazar
rah gai wo nigah-e-naz qalb o jigar mein baiTh kar
dil mein latif si KHalish aankh hai aansuon se tar
raat ki nind uD gai din ka sukun luT gaya
teri nigah-e-naz ne kar diya dil pe kya asar
sun na sake usi ko wo kah na saka usi ko main
aish ki dastan mein jo haal tha gham ka muKHtasar
shaKH se gul jo gir paDa dil se laga ke rakh liya
daur-e-KHizan bhi dekh lun phul chune hain umr bhar
koi agar nihaal hai koi KHarab-haal hai
zarf ke sath sath hai un ki nigah ka asar
rang-e-chaman ko dekh kar 'arif'-e-KHasta-dil ye kya
phulon pe hai kabhi nazar kanTon pe hai kabhi nazar
