shabnam to bagh mein hai na yun chashm-e-tar ki hum

kho diya nur-e-basirat tu ne ma-o-man ke bich

be-murawwat bewafa na-mehrban na-ashna

mai-kade mein jo tere husn ka mazkur hua

ai sham-e-dil-afroz shab-e-tar-e-mohabbat

gar ek raat guzar yan wo rashk-e-mah kare

aane do apne pas mujhko

jo kuchh ki tha wazaif-o-aurad rah gaya

tere kuche se na ye sheftagan jate hain

jo hui so hui jaane do milo bismillah

husul-e-faqr gar chahe to chhoD asbab-e-duniya ko

KHak-e-ashiq hai jo howe hai nisar-e-daman

pawe kis tarah koi kis ko hai maqdur hamein

dil ko main aaj nasehan usko diya jo ho so ho

bahaar-e-gulshan-e-ayyam hun main
