aa fasl-e-gul hai gharq-e-tamanna tere liye
duba hua hai rang mein sahra tere liye

sahil pe sarw-e-naz ko de zahmat-e-khiram
bal kha raha hai khak pe dariya tere liye

ifa-e-ahd kar ki hai muddat se be-qarar
ruh-e-wafa-e-wada-e-farda tere liye

shanon pe ab to kakul-e-shab-rang khol de
bikhri hui hai zulf-e-tamanna tere liye

uth chashm-e-jawedana-e-saghar-farosh uth
machli hui hai larzish-e-sahba tere liye

ai aaftab-e-jalwa-e-jaanan buland ho
khoya hua hai matla-e-duniya tere liye

mauj-e-shamim-e-sumbul-o-raihan ke darmiyan
wa hai musahibat ka daricha tere liye

aa aur dad de ki bain chahsm-e-haq-nigar
khae hue hun zist ka dhoka tere liye

sabze ka farsh abr ka khema gulon ka itr
gulshan mein ehtimam hai kya kya tere liye

tughyan-e-gul shabab pe bulbul kharosh mein
ek hashr sa hai bagh mein barpa tere liye

'josh' aur nang-e-khidmat-e-sultan o pas-e-hosh
ye bhi kiye hue hai gawara tere liye
