haqiqat-e-gham-e-ulfat chhupa raha hun main

dur hain wo aur kitni dur

har gosha-e-nazar mein samae hue ho tum

mujhko saqi ne jo ruKHsat kiya mai-KHane se

gulshan ho nigahon mein to jannat na samajhna

gham-e-jahan ke fasane talash karte hain

begana ho ke bazm-e-jahan dekhta hun main

dil mein kisi KHalish ka guzar chahta hun main

hangama-e-gham se tang aa kar izhaar-e-masarrat kar baiThe

ihanat-e-dil-e-sabr-azma nahin karte

wajh-e-qadr-o-qimat-e-dil husn ki tanwir hai

taqdir ki gardish kya kam thi is par ye qayamat kar baiThe

zamin par fasl-e-gul aai falak par mahtab aaya

lamha lamha bar hai tere baghair

lutf-e-nigah-e-naz ki tohmat uThae kaun
