charāġh-e-shauq lahū se jalā diyā ham ne

ik aur qissa-e-vahshat sunā diyā ham ne

jo mauj sar ko paTaktī rahī hai sāhil se

usī ko rū-kash-e-tūfāñ banā diyā ham ne

na.e jo ham-safar-e-kesh-e-ishq haiñ un ko

ma.āl-e-soz-e-mohabbat banā diyā ham ne

basān-e-ḳhāna-ba-doshāñ ka.ī hai umr apnī

jahāñ qayām kiyā ghar banā diyā ham ne

bujhī bujhī sī rahe sham-e-ārzū sar-e-bazm

so raushnī ke liye dil jalā diyā ham ne

zamīn-e-shor lagī dasht-e-ārzū meñ jahāñ

vahīñ pe ishq kā paudā lagā diyā ham ne

chale haiñ rah-guzar-e-shauq par havā kī tarah

jo aayā sāmne 'rāhī' haTā diyā ham ne
