kisī kā ḳhuun sahī ik nikhār de to diyā

ḳhizāñ ko tum ne libās-e-bahār de to diyā

mire shu.ūr ko kaliyāñ ab aur kyā detīñ

tasavvur-e-lab-e-rañgīn-e-yār de to diyā

ab aur ḳhizr se kyā chāhtī hai pyaas mirī

sarāb-e-rahmat-e-parvar-digār de to diyā

agarche jabr hai ye bhī magar ġhanīmat jaan

ki ek jazba-e-be-iḳhtiyār de to diyā

ye aur baat ki dāman ko phuul de na sakī

magar bahār ne talvoñ ko ḳhaar de to diyā

bahār aa.e na aa.e magar lahū ne mire

chaman kī ḳhaak ko ik e'tibār de to diyā

ummīdeñ chhīn liiñ us ne to phir gila kyā hai

qarār maañg rahe the qarār de to diyā

kare ḳhudā se gila kyuuñ kisī kī majbūrī

kisī ke dil pe sahī iḳhtiyār de to diyā

'jamīl' us ātish-e-ruḳh ko havā na do itnī

ab aur chāhiye kyā ik sharār de to diyā
