ishq ko bich mein ya-rab tu na laya hota

ishq ko biich meñ yā-rab tū na laayā hotā

yā tan-e-ādmī meñ dil na banāyā hotā

dil na thā aisī jagah jis kī na sudh liije kabhū

ujḌī is bastī ko phir tū ne basāyā hotā

izzat islām kī kuchh rakh lī ḳhudā ne varna

zulf ne terī to zunnār bañdhāyā hotā

ghar ke aage se tire na.ash ga.ī āshiq kī

apne darvāze talak tū bhī to aaya hotā

jo hai so be-ḳhud-e-raftār hai terā ai shoḳh

is ravish se na qadam tū ne uThāyā hotā

ab to sad-chand sitam karne lage tum ai kaash

ishq apnā na tumheñ maiñ ne jatāyā hotā

dil se ḳhush-tarah makāñ phir bhī kahīñ bante haiñ

is imārat ko Tuk ik dekh ke Dhāyā hotā

dil pe rakhtā huuñ kabhū sar se kabhū mārūñ huuñ

haath paañv ko na maiñ tere lagāyā hotā

kam-kam uThtā vo naqāb aah ki tāqat rahtī

kaash yakbār hameñ muñh na dikhāyā hotā

'mīr' iz.hār-e-mohabbat meñ gayā jī na tirā

haa.e nādān bahut tū ne chhupāyā hotā

ishq ko bich mein ya-rab tu na laya hota

ya tan-e-admi mein dil na banaya hota

dil na tha aisi jagah jis ki na sudh lije kabhu

ujDi is basti ko phir tu ne basaya hota

izzat islam ki kuchh rakh li KHuda ne warna

zulf ne teri to zunnar bandhaya hota

ghar ke aage se tere nash gai aashiq ki

apne darwaze talak tu bhi to aaya hota

jo hai so be-KHud-e-raftar hai tera ai shoKH

is rawish se na qadam tu ne uThaya hota

ab to sad-chand sitam karne lage tum ai kash

ishq apna na tumhein main ne jataya hota

dil se KHush-tarah makan phir bhi kahin bante hain

is imarat ko Tuk ek dekh ke Dhaya hota

dil pe rakhta hun kabhu sar se kabhu marun hun

hath panw ko na main tere lagaya hota

kam-kam uThta wo naqab aah ki taqat rahti

kash yakbar hamein munh na dikhaya hota

'mir' izhaar-e-mohabbat mein gaya ji na tera

hae nadan bahut tu ne chhupaya hota
