shabnam ko ret phuul ko kāñTā banā diyā
ham ne to apne baaġh ko sahrā banā diyā
is uuñch niich par to Thaharte nahīñ the paañv
kis dast-e-shauq ne ise duniyā banā diyā
kin muTThiyoñ ne biij bikhere zamīn par
kin bārishoñ ne is ko tamāshā banā diyā
sairāb kar diyā tirī mauj-e-ḳhirām ne
rakkhā jahāñ qadam vahāñ dariyā banā diyā
ik raat chāñdnī mire bistar pe aa.ī thī
maiñ ne tarāsh kar tirā chehra banā diyā
pūchhe agar koī to use kyā batāoñ maiñ
dil kyā thaa, tere ġham ne ise kyā banā diyā
