dekhna ye ishq mein husn-e-pazirai ke rang
anjuman-dar-anjuman hon meri tanhai ke rang

dil ke har goshe mein jal utthe hain zakhmon ke charagh
allah allah ek masiha ki masihai ke rang

is ada se aa gae hain wo nazar ke ru-ba-ru
aur gahre ho gae hain is dil ki binai ke rang

ho sadaqat ka jo dawa dekh le ji aaina
aaine hi mein nazar aate hain sachchai ke rang

har dar-o-diwar par likkha hua hai mera nam
wajh-e-shohrat ban gae hain kitne ruswai ke rang

har nazar apni jagah khud ek jalwa ban gai
chha gae aise tumhaari jalwa-arai ke rang

der tak 'akhgar' dar-e-jaan par charaghon ki tarah
raushni dete rahe meri jabin-sai ke rang
