husn-e-masum agar raaz-e-nihan tak pahunche
gham ka mear khuda jaane kahan tak pahunche

ishq mein yun to sabhi sud-o-ziyan tak pahunche
kam hain aise jo mere azm-e-jawan tak pahunche

hum pahunchne ko to har wahm-o-guman tak pahunche
tum wahan ho ki nazar bhi na jahan tak pahunche

wo musibat jise duniya gham-e-dil kahti hai
main na rokun to khuda jaane kahan tak pahunche

tum kahin ja ke chhupo dawat-e-nazzara to do
phir ye maqdur-e-nazar hai ki jahan tak pahunche

hukm hai chahe gulistan ka gulistan jal jae
hath lekin na koi barq-e-tapan tak pahunche

tum rah-e-ishq mein lillah mera sath na do
silsila gham ka khuda jaane kahan tak pahunche

uf wo nazren jo mohabbat ka bharam rakh na saken
hae wo kaif jo ehsas-e-garan tak pahunche

raaz-e-ulfat main chhupata to hun lekin 'arshad'
dar hai ehsas ki talkhi na zaban tak pahunche
