    vo raat be-panāh thī aur maiñ ġharīb thā

    vo jis ne ye charāġh jalāyā ajiib thā

    vo raushnī ki aañkh uThā.ī nahīñ ga.ī

    kal mujh se merā chāñd bahut qarīb thā

    dekhā mujhe to tab.a ravāñ ho ga.ī mirī

    vo muskurā diyā to maiñ shā.er adiib thā

    rakhtā na kyuuñ maiñ ruuh o badan us ke sāmne

    vo yuuñ bhī thā tabīb vo yuuñ bhī tabīb thā

    har silsila thā us ḳhudā se milā huā

    chup ho ki lab-kushā ho balā ḳhatīb thā

    mauj-e-nashāt o sail-e-ġham-e-jāñ the ek saath

    gulshan meñ naġhma-sañj ajab andalīb thā

    maiñ bhī rahā huuñ ḳhalvat-e-jānāñ meñ ek shaam

    ye ḳhvāb hai vāqa.ī maiñ ḳhush-nasīb thā

    harf-e-duā o dast-e-saḳhāvat ke baab meñ

    ḳhud merā tajraba hai vo be-had najīb thā

    dekhā hai us ko ḳhalvat o jalvat meñ bār-hā

    vo aadmī bahut ajīb-o-ġharīb thā

    likkho tamām umar magar phir bhī tum 'alīm'

    us ko dikhā na paao vo aisā habīb thā

    wo raat be-panah thi aur main gharib tha

    wo jis ne ye charagh jalaya ajib tha

    wo raushni ki aankh uThai nahin gai

    kal mujh se mera chand bahut hi qarib tha

    dekha mujhe to taba rawan ho gai meri

    wo muskura diya to main shaer adib tha

    rakhta na kyun main ruh o badan us ke samne

    wo yun bhi tha tabib wo yun bhi tabib tha

    har silsila tha us ka KHuda se mila hua

    chup ho ki lab-kusha ho bala ka KHatib tha

    mauj-e-nashat o sail-e-gham-e-jaan the ek sath

    gulshan mein naghma-sanj ajab andalib tha

    main bhi raha hun KHalwat-e-jaanan mein ek sham

    ye KHwab hai ya waqai main KHush-nasib tha

    harf-e-dua o dast-e-saKHawat ke bab mein

    KHud mera tajraba hai wo be-had najib tha

    dekha hai us ko KHalwat o jalwat mein bar-ha

    wo aadmi bahut hi ajib-o-gharib tha

    likkho tamam umar magar phir bhi tum 'alim'

    us ko dikha na pao wo aisa habib tha
