naz bhala kis baat ka tujh ko pas-e-hunar jab kuchh bhi nahin
manzil par pahunchega kaise rakht-e-safar jab kuchh bhi nahin

dekh bhatak jae na musafir aankh ki bhul-bhulaiyya mein
kis ko dhunde shokh-nazar ta-hadd-e-nazar jab kuchh bhi nahin

meri nigahon mein duniya ki har shai se nayab hai tu
aur kisi ko kyun chahun tujh se behtar jab kuchh bhi nahin

main bhi fani tu bhi fani sara aalam fani hai
kya khad-o-khal pe naz karen duniya mein amar jab kuchh nahin

jugnu aur sitare mil kar tujh ko kya lalkarenge
tere aage nur ke paikar shams-o-qamar jab kuchh bhi nahin

baatil ko ab kaun duhai qanun aur insaf ki de
bandon ka kya khauf use allah ka dar jab kuchh bhi nahin

taj-mahal phika lagta hai us ke rup ke aage 'shad'
teri kya auqat bhala sang-e-marmar jab kuchh bhi nahin
