koi ye kah de gulshan gulshan
lakh balaen ek nasheman

qatil rahbar qatil rahzan
dil sa dost na dil sa dushman

phul khile hain gulshan gulshan
lekin apna apna daman

ishq hai pyare khel nahin hai
ishq hai kare-shisha-o-ahan

khair mizaj-e-husn ki ya-rab
tez bahut hai dil ki dhadkan

aa ki na jaane tujh bin kab se
ruh hai lasha jism hai madfan

aaj na jaane raaz ye kya hai
hijr ki raat aur itni raushan

umren bitin sadiyan guzrin
hai wahi ab tak ishq ka bachpan

tujh sa hasin aur khun-e-mohabbat
wahm hai shayad surkhi-e-daman

barq-e-hawadis allah allah
jhum rahi hai shakh-e-nasheman

tu ne sulajh kar gesu-e-jaanan
aur badha di shauq ki uljhan

rahmat hogi talib-e-isyan
rashk karegi paki-e-daman

dil ki mujassam aaina-saman
aur wo zalim aaina-dushman

baithe hum har bazm mein lekin
jhad ke utthe apna daman

hasti-e-shaer allah allah
husn ki manzil ishq ka maskan

rangin fitrat sada tabiat
farsh-nashin aur arsh-nasheman

kaam adhura aur aazadi
nam bade aur thode darshan

shama hai lekin dhundli dhudli
saya hai lekin raushan raushan

kanton ka bhi haq hai kuchh aakhir
kaun chhudae apna daman

chalti phirti chhanw hai pyare
kis ka sahra kaisa gulshan
