aarti hum kya utaren husn-e-mala-mal ki
bujh gai har jot puja ke sunahre thaal ki

tum to kya dastak nahin detin hawaen tak yahan
dil hai ya sunsan kutiya hai kisi kangal ki

dekh ai gul-pairahan tere liye pardes se
kaun laya hai hawaon ki moattar palki

phir ugane do yahan hum ko lahu ke kuchh gulab
aap ne to shahrah-e-dil bahut pamal ki

tu muqaddas aankh hai yani hasin suraj ki aankh
aur main gahri gupha wo bhi kisi patal ki

tum pilao apne honton se agar aab-e-hayat
phenk denge hum surahi aatishin sayyal ki

gunguna kar tairta hai jis mein khushbu ka badan
'prem' teri shairi wo jhil hai sur-tal ki
