aks kis chiz ka aaina-e-hairat mein nahin
teri surat mein hai kya jo meri surat mein nahin

donon aalam teri nairang adai ke nisar
ab koi chiz yahan jeb-e-mohabbat mein nahin

daulat-e-qurb ko khasan-e-mohabbat jaanen
chand ashkon ke siwa kuchh meri qismat mein nahin

log marte bhi hain jite bhi hain betab bhi hain
kaun sa sehr teri chashm-e-inayat mein nahin

sab se ek tarz juda sab se ek aahang juda
rang mahfil mein tera jo hai wo khalwat mein nahin

nashsha-e-ishq mein har chiz udi jati hai
kaun zarra hai ki sarshaar mohabbat mein nahin

dawa-e-did ghalat dawa-e-irfan bhi ghalat
kuchh tajalli ke siwa chashm-e-basirat mein nahin

ho gai jama mata-e-gham-e-hirman kyunkar
main samajhta tha koi parda-e-ghaflat mein nahin

zarre zarre mein kiya josh-e-tarannum paida
khud magar koi nawa saz-e-mohabbat mein nahin

najd ki samt se ye shor-e-ana-laila kyun
shokhi-e-husn agar parda-e-wahshat mein nahin
