raushan hai bazm-e-shoala-rukhan dekhte chalen
is mein wo ek nur-e-jahan dekhte chalen

wa ho rahi hai mai-kada-e-nim-shab ki aankh
angdai le raha hai jahan dekhte chalen

sargoshiyon ki raat hai rukhsar o lab ki raat
ab ho rahi hai raat jawan dekhte chalen

dil mein utar ke sair-e-dil-e-rah-rawan karen
aahon mein dhal ke zabt-e-fughan dekhte chalen

kaise hain khanqah mein arbab-e-khanqah
kis haal mein hai pir-e-mughan dekhte chalen

mazi ki yaadgar sahi yaad-e-dil to hai
tarz-e-nashat-e-nauha-garan dekhte chalen

sab waswase hain gard-e-rah-e-karwan ke sath
aage hai mishalon ka dhuan dekhte chalen

aanchal se ud rahe hain fazaon mein dur dur
shayad wahi ho jaan-e-butan dekhte chalen

aa hi gae hain raqs-gah-e-gul-rukhan mein hum
kuchh rang-o-bu ka sail-e-rawan dekhte chalen
