uns hai ḳhāna-e-sayyād se gulshan kaisā
nāz-parvard-e-qafas huuñ maiñ nasheman kaisā
ham vo uryāñ haiñ ki vāqif nahīñ ai josh-e-junūñ
naam kis shai kā garebān hai dāman kaisā
apnī āzurda-dilī ba.ad-e-fanā kaam aa.ī
Dher yahāñ gard-e-kudūrat ke haiñ madfan kaisā
kah diyā bas ki tirī aah meñ tāsīr nahīñ
ye na dekhā ki ye siina meñ hai rauzan kaisā
chhuT ke us phuul se barbād paḌe phirte haiñ
ham to ab tā.ir-e-nighat haiñ nasheman kaisā
dil use de ke chale mulk-e-adam ko be-ḳhauf
maal rakhte nahīñ andesha-e-rahzan kaisā
dil-e-betāb kī hai sīna-e-sozāñ meñ sadā
asl paara kī hai kyā dāna-e-gulḳhan kaisā
thā kabhī daur-e-asīrān-e-qafas ai sayyād
ab to ik phuul kī muhtāj haiñ gulshan kaisā
chaar din meñ ye zamāna bhī guzar jā.egā
abhī ro.eñge javānī ko laḌakpan kaisā
saḳht-jāñ haiñ tirī talvār se kyā ḳhauf hameñ
saḳhtī-e-marg se dabte nahīñ aahan kaisā
jal ga.e sūrat-e-parvāna tab ishq se ham
pheñk de laash uThā kar koī madfan kaisā
ek din ablaq-e-ayyām karegā pāmāl
mujh se rah rah ke bigaḌtā hai ye tausan kaisā
ishq se kaam na thā husn kī parvā bhī na thī
yaad aatā hai javānī meñ laḌakpan kaisā
khelte ho dil-e-betāb se phūloñ kī tarah
aur hotā hai mirī jaan laḌakpan kaisā
sham.a se aap ke sozāñ ye sunā karte haiñ
koī muhtāj-e-kafan bhī na ho madfan kaisā
chāhtā huuñ koī dekhe na terī teġh ke zaḳhm
chashm-e-jarrāh hai kyā dīda-e-sozan kaisā
naqsh-e-pā haiñ havas-e-nām-o-nishāñ ḳhaak nahīñ
ham to uThne ke liye baiThe haiñ maskan kaisā
āñdhiyāñ garm jo chaltī haiñ mirī aahoñ se
muñh chhupātā hai charāġh-e-tah-e-dāman kaisā
siina apnā hai hamārā dil-e-sozāñ apnā
sham-e-fānūs o charāġh-e-tah-e-dāman kaisā
duur jab se sifat-e-barg-e-ḳhizāñ-dīda hai
yaad aatā hai shab-o-roz vo gulshan kaisā
uns hai KHana-e-sayyaad se gulshan kaisa
naz-parward-e-qafas hun main nasheman kaisa
hum wo uryan hain ki waqif nahin ai josh-e-junun
nam kis shai ka gareban hai daman kaisa
apni aazurda-dili baad-e-fana kaam aai
Dher yahan gard-e-kudurat ke hain madfan kaisa
kah diya bas ki teri aah mein tasir nahin
ye na dekha ki ye sina mein hai rauzan kaisa
chhuT ke us phul se barbaad paDe phirte hain
hum to ab tair-e-nighat hain nasheman kaisa
dil use de ke chale mulk-e-adam ko be-KHauf
mal rakhte nahin andesha-e-rahzan kaisa
dil-e-betab ki hai sina-e-sozan mein sada
asl para ki hai kya dana-e-gulKHan kaisa
tha kabhi daur-e-asiran-e-qafas ai sayyaad
ab to ek phul ki muhtaj hain gulshan kaisa
chaar din mein ye zamana bhi guzar jaega
abhi roenge jawani ko laDakpan kaisa
saKHt-jaan hain teri talwar se kya KHauf hamein
saKHti-e-marg se dabte nahin aahan kaisa
jal gae surat-e-parwana tab ishq se hum
phenk de lash uTha kar koi madfan kaisa
ek din ablaq-e-ayyam karega pamal
mujh se rah rah ke bigaDta hai ye tausan kaisa
ishq se kaam na tha husn ki parwa bhi na thi
yaad aata hai jawani mein laDakpan kaisa
khelte ho dil-e-betab se phulon ki tarah
aur hota hai meri jaan laDakpan kaisa
shama se aap ke sozan ye suna karte hain
koi muhtaj-e-kafan bhi na ho madfan kaisa
chahta hun koi dekhe na teri tegh ke zaKHm
chashm-e-jarrah hai kya dida-e-sozan kaisa
naqsh-e-pa hain hawas-e-nam-o-nishan KHak nahin
hum to uThne ke liye baiThe hain maskan kaisa
aandhiyan garm jo chalti hain meri aahon se
munh chhupata hai charagh-e-tah-e-daman kaisa
sina apna hai hamara dil-e-sozan apna
sham-e-fanus o charagh-e-tah-e-daman kaisa
dur jab se sifat-e-barg-e-KHizan-dida hai
yaad aata hai shab-o-roz wo gulshan kaisa
