apna rafiq-o-ashna ghair-e-khuda koi nahin
ranj-o-mehan mein gham-zada ghair-e-khuda koi nahin

puchha jo main hakim se illat-e-kun-fakan hai kaun
soch ke us ne ye kaha ghair-e-khuda koi nahin

ka'be ka shab ko main jo ja halqa-e-dar hila diya
aai sada ye andar aa ghair-e-khuda koi nahin

aarif agar ba-chashm-e-ghaur aaina-e-jahan ke bich
dekhe to samjhe runuma ghair-e-khuda koi nahin

garche jahan hai ma-siwa zat ke us ki 'mushafi'
sochiye phir to ma-siwa ghair-e-khuda koi nahin
