ye dana-e-hawas tumhein haram kyun nahin raha
ye dāna-e-havas tumheñ harām kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
uḌaan kā vo shauq zer-e-dām kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
masāfatoñ kā phir vo ehtimām kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
safar darūn-e-zāt be-qayām kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
bikhar ga.ī hai shab to tīrgī kā raaj kyuuñ nahīñ
jo baam par thā vo mah-e-tamām kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
hamāre qatl par usūl-e-qatl-gah kā kuchh lihāz
salīb-o-dār kā bhī ehtimām kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
bhalā ye kaise maan leñ ki dil ko saaf kar liyā
jo sulh ho ga.ī to phir kalām kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
jo sho.abde the tere pīr-e-vaqt un kā kyā huā
atā-e-husn-o-ishq par davām kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
jo pairav-e-havā-e-nafs-o-banda-e-havas huā
use ye ġham vo vaqt kā imaam kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
diloñ ko jītne kī jo karāmateñ thiiñ kyā huiiñ
nazar nazar jo faiz thā vo aam kyuuñ nahīñ rahā
ye dana-e-hawas tumhein haram kyun nahin raha
uDan ka wo shauq zer-e-dam kyun nahin raha
masafaton ka phir wo ehtimam kyun nahin raha
safar darun-e-zat be-qayam kyun nahin raha
bikhar gai hai shab to tirgi ka raj kyun nahin
jo baam par tha wo mah-e-tamam kyun nahin raha
hamare qatl par usul-e-qatl-gah ka kuchh lihaz
salib-o-dar ka bhi ehtimam kyun nahin raha
bhala ye kaise man len ki dil ko saf kar liya
jo sulh ho gai to phir kalam kyun nahin raha
jo shoabde the tere pir-e-waqt un ka kya hua
ata-e-husn-o-ishq par dawam kyun nahin raha
jo pairaw-e-hawa-e-nafs-o-banda-e-hawas hua
use ye gham wo waqt ka imam kyun nahin raha
dilon ko jitne ki jo karamaten thin kya huin
nazar nazar jo faiz tha wo aam kyun nahin raha
