kaun thā us ke havā-ḳhvāhoñ meñ jo shāmil na thā
ab huā mālūm mujh ko dil bhī merā dil na thā
ishq kī betābiyoñ par husn ko rahm aa gayā
jab nigāh-e-shauq taḌpī parda-e-mahmil na thā
thiiñ nigāh-e-shauq kī rañgīniyāñ chhā.ī huī
parda-e-mahmil uThā to sāhib-e-mahmil na thā
qahr hai thoḌī sī bhī ġhaflat tarīq-e-ishq meñ
aañkh jhapkī qais kī aur sāmne mahmil na thā
