tamam shahr ki aankhon ka mahtab hua
tamām shahr kī āñkhoñ kā māhtāb huā
maiñ jab se us kī nigāhoñ meñ intiḳhāb huā
havā ke kāñdhoñ ne pahuñchāyā āsmānoñ tak
maiñ barg-e-sabz thā sūkhā to āftāb huā
palaT ke dekhūñ to mujh ko sazā.eñ detā hai
ajab sitāra rah-e-ġham meñ ham-rikāb huā
yuuñ qaus-e-chashm meñ aayā vo bārishoñ kī tarah
ki harf-e-dīd ka.ī rañgoñ kī kitāb huā
pighal ke aa ga.ī saarī udāsī lafzoñ meñ
vufūr-e-ġham mire ā.īne meñ habāb huā
maiñ apnī ḳhvāhisheñ gum kar ke mil gayā us ko
ḳhushā vo merī mohabbat meñ kāmyāb huā
tamam shahr ki aankhon ka mahtab hua
main jab se us ki nigahon mein intiKHab hua
hawa ke kandhon ne pahunchaya aasmanon tak
main barg-e-sabz tha sukha to aaftab hua
palaT ke dekhun to mujh ko sazaen deta hai
ajab sitara rah-e-gham mein ham-rikab hua
yun qaus-e-chashm mein aaya wo barishon ki tarah
ki harf-e-did kai rangon ki kitab hua
pighal ke aa gai sari udasi lafzon mein
wufur-e-gham mere aaine mein habab hua
main apni KHwahishen gum kar ke mil gaya us ko
KHusha wo meri mohabbat mein kaamyab hua
