us se baDh kar to koi be-sar-o-saman na mila

hawas-e-KHalwat-e-KHurshid-o-nishan aur sahi

KHirad ko gumshuda-e-ku-ba-ku samajhte hain

kaun kahta mujhe shaista-e-tahzib-e-junun

iltifat-ashna hijab tera

wo barq-e-naz gurezan nahin to kuchh bhi nahin

ahd-o-paiman kar ke paimane ke sath

naqab-e-shab mein chhup kar kis ki yaad aai samajhte hain

but-gar hai na koi but-shikan hai

hawas-e-KHalwat-e-KHurshid-o-nishan aur sahi

daur-e-sbuhi shola-e-mina raqsan chhanw mein taron ki

ishq ki sharah-e-muKHtasar ke liye

rang par jab wo bazm-e-naz aai

KHwab-e-didar na dekha humne

zindagi jab se shanasa-e-muhaallat hui
