ye aarzu thi tujhe gul ke ru-ba-ru karte

sun to sahi jahan mein hai tera fasana kya

dahan par hain un ke guman kaise kaise

ai sanam jis ne tujhe chand si surat di hai

shab-e-wasl thi chandni ka saman tha

aaina sina-e-sahab-nazaran hai ki jo tha

na-fahmi apni parda hai didar ke liye

toD kar tar-e-nigah ka silsila jata raha

chaman mein shab ko jo wo shoKH be-naqab aaya

kya kya na rang tere talabgar la chuke

husn-e-pari ek jalwa-e-mastana hai us ka

koi ishq mein mujhse afzun na nikla

fareb-e-husn se gabr-o-musalman ka chalan bigDa

raftagan ka bhi KHayal ai ahl-e-alam kijiye

magar usko fareb-e-nargis-e-mastana aata hai

hawa-e-daur-e-mai-e-KHush-gawar rah mein hai

ye kis rashk-e-masiha ka makan hai

wahshi the bu-e-gul ki tarah is jahan mein hum

qudrat-e-haq hai sabahat se tamasha hai wo ruKH

teri zulfon ne bal khaya to hota

wahi chitwan ki KHun-KHwari jo aage thi so ab bhi hai

wo naznin ye nazakat mein kuchh yagana hua

dil-lagi apni tere zikr se kis raat na thi

tasawwur se kisi ke maine ki hai guftugu barson

piri se mera nau digar-haal hua hai

zinde wahi hain jo ki hain tum par mare hue

ghairat-e-mahr rashk-e-mah ho tum

ya-ali kah kar but-e-pindar toDa chahiye

aisi wahshat nahin dil ko ki sambhal jaunga

surat se isko behtar surat nahin hai koi

aable paon ke kya tu ne hamare toDe

kaam himmat se jawan mard agar leta hai

bala-e-jaan mujhe har ek KHush-jamal hua

kucha-e-dilbar mein main bulbul chaman mein mast hai

chaman mein rahne de kaun aashiyan nahin malum

mohabbat ka teri banda har ek ko ai sanam paya

dost dushman ne kiye qatl ke saman kya kya

diwangi ne kya kya aalam dikha diye hain

aashna gosh se us gul ke suKHan hai kis ka

aashiq hun main nafrat hai mere rang ko ru se

ai junun hote hain sahra par utare shahr se

aaina-KHana karenge dil-e-nakaam ko hum

jauhar nahin hamare hain sayyaad par khule

wahshat-e-dil ne kiya hai wo bayaban paida

jab ke ruswa hue inkar hai sach baat mein kya

mere dil ko shauq-e-fughan nahin mere lab tak aati dua nahin

rujua banda ki hai is tarah KHuda ki taraf

KHwahan tere har rang mein ai yar hamin the

dil bahut tang raha karta hai

payambar main nahin aashiq hun jaani
