ḳhvāb meñ bhī havas-e-yār liye phirtī hai
chaal meñ is kī sarāpā hai kisī kī taqlīd
kabk ko yaar kī raftār liye phirtī hai
dar-e-yār aa.e Thikāne lage miTTī merī
dosh par apne sabā baar liye phirtī hai
hañste haiñ dekh ke majnūñ ko gul-e-sahrā.ī
pā-barahna talab-e-ḳhār liye phirtī hai
saaya sā husn ke ham-rāh hai ishq-e-bebāk

kisī sūrat se nahīñ jaañ ko farār ai 'ātish'
tapish-e-dil mujhe lāchār liye phirtī hai
