aa rahi hai kis ki chhagal ki sada-e-jaan-nawaz

wo saman-andam hai ye shahid-e-parda-nashin

jis ke phulon mein hai ab tak bu-e-firdaus-e-barin

huren aa kar KHuld se tauf-e-mazar-e-pak ko

jhaDti palkon se hain gard-o-KHas-o-KHashak ko

aah ai naqsh-e-nigar-e-shaukat-e-ahd-e-kuhan

aah ai aaina-dar-e-shaukat-e-ahd-e-kuhan

hum ne nana tujh mein ab wo shan-e-barnai nahin

wo ghurur-e-husn wo tamkin wo ranai nahin

hum ne mana tere chehre ki ziya jati rahi

teri maujon ki wo mastana ada jati rahi

munh pe gumnami ka aanchal le na ai parda-nashin

yun hi sargarm-e-KHiram-e-naz rah ai naznin

sar ko Takraya kare sahil se sail-e-rozgar

teri shohrat ke nishan sadiyon rahenge yaadgar
