kabhi shakh o sabza o barg par kabhi ghuncha o gul o khar par
main chaman mein chahe jahan rahun mera haq hai fasl-e-bahaar par

mujhe den na ghaiz mein dhamkiyan giren lakh bar ye bijliyan
meri saltanat ye hi aashiyan meri milkiyat ye hi chaar par

jinhen kahiye ishq ki wusaten jo hain khas husn ki azmaten
ye usi ke qalb se puchhiye jise fakhr ho gham-e-yar par

mere ashk-e-khun ki bahaar hai ki muraqqa-e-gham-e-yar hai
meri shairi bhi nisar hai meri chashm-e-sehr-nigar par

ajab inqilab-e-zamana hai mera mukhtasar sa fasana hai
yahi ab jo bar hai dosh par yahi sar tha zanu-e-yar par

ye kamal-e-ishq ki sazishen ye jamal-e-husn ki nazishen
ye inayaten ye nawazishen meri ek musht-e-ghubar par

meri samt se use ai saba ye payam-e-akhir-e-gham suna
abhi dekhna ho to dekh ja ki khizan hai apni bahaar par

ye fareb-e-jalwa hai sar-ba-sar mujhe dar ye hai dil-e-be-khabar
kahin jam na jae teri nazar inhin chand naqsh o nigar par

main rahin-e-dard sahi magar mujhe aur chahiye kya 'jigar'
gham-e-yar hai mera shefta main farefta gham-e-yar par
