ye KHub-ru na chhuri ne kaTar rakhte hain

ye ḳhūb-rū na chhurī ne kaTār rakhte haiñ

nigāh-e-lutf se aalam ko maar rakhte haiñ

charāġh-e-gor na sham-e-mazār rakhte haiñ

bas ek ham ye dil dāġhdār rakhte haiñ

sharāb-e-ishq na ai dost pījiyo hargiz

isī nashe kā ham ab tak ḳhumār rakhte haiñ

mirī zabānī koī us se is qadar pūchhe

kahīñ ye jhūTe bhī vaade shumār rakhte haiñ

qayāmat aa chukī dīdār-e-haq huā sab ko

ham ab talak bhī tirā intizār rakhte haiñ

agarche ḳhaak barābar kiyā falak ne 'bayāñ'

dimāġh par vahī ham ḳhāksār rakhte haiñ

ye KHub-ru na chhuri ne kaTar rakhte hain

nigah-e-lutf se aalam ko mar rakhte hain

charagh-e-gor na sham-e-mazar rakhte hain

bas ek hum ye dil daghdar rakhte hain

sharab-e-ishq na ai dost pijiyo hargiz

isi nashe ka hum ab tak KHumar rakhte hain

meri zabani koi us se is qadar puchhe

kahin ye jhuTe bhi wade shumar rakhte hain

qayamat aa chuki didar-e-haq hua sab ko

hum ab talak bhi tera intizar rakhte hain

agarche KHak barabar kiya falak ne 'bayan'

dimagh par wahi hum KHaksar rakhte hain
