hai husn sau hijab-e-farozan liye hue
kya dekhe koi dida-e-hairan liye hue

lutf-e-qubul-e-husn ka arman liye hue
hazir hain hum mata-e-dil-o-jaan liye hue

dam-e-qafas ka dosh pe saman liye hue
sayyaad uthe nawed-e-bahaaran liye hue

kya kahiye bahr-e-shauq ki hangama-kheziyan
hai mauj-mauj shorish-e-tufan liye hue

uljha hua hai zulf-e-tasawwur ka baal baal
har khwab hai khayal-e-pareshan liye hue

aalam tamam zulmat-e-nau se hai tira-jaan
baithe ho shama tum tah-e-daman liye hue

wo surma karenge koi marka bhi sar
aae jo ran mein qalb-e-harasan liye hue

'arif' payam-e-am-e-mohabbat tera payam
insan ke pas ja gham-e-insan liye hue
