dil saf ho to jalwa-gah-e-yar kyun na ho
aaina ho to qabil-e-didar kyun na ho

aalam tamam us ka giraftar kyun na ho
wo naz-pesha ek hai ayyar kyun na ho

mustaghyana to jo kare pahle hi suluk
aashiq ko fikr-e-aqibat-kar kyun na ho

rahmat ghazab mein nisbat-e-barq-o-sahab hai
jis ko shuur ho to gunahgar kyun na ho

dushman to ek taraf ki sabab rashk ka hai yan
dar ka shighaf-o-rakhna-e-diwar kyun na ho

aayat-e-haq hain sare ye zarraat-e-kaenat
inkar tujh ko howe so iqrar kyun na ho

har-dam ki taza marg-e-judai se tang hun
hona jo kuchh hai aah so yak-bar kyun na ho

mu-e-safed hum ko kahe hai ki ghafilan
ab subh hone aai hai bedar kyun na ho

nazdik apne hum ne to sab kar rakha hai sahal
phir 'mir' is mein murdan-e-dushwar kyun na ho
