har ek fan mein yaqinan taq hai wo
azal hi se bada khallaq hai wo

jise tum ne kaha tha samm-e-qatil
azizam asl mein tiryaq hai wo

use sang-e-tanaffur se na ragdo
sulag utthega dil chaqmaq hai wo

ghurub-e-sidq ka khadsha hai baatil
kahan minnat-kash-e-ishraq hai wo

jari ibn-e-sharafat nek ladka
qabile bhar mein lekin aaq hai wo

ba-baatin aaina hai qalb us ka
ba-zahir sarwar-e-fussaq hai wo

kahan se ehtisab-e-nafs hoga
hisab-e-dostan be-baq hai wo

muqaffal ghar khula hai ek daricha
kisi ki did ka mushtaq hai wo

jahan rakkhi hai sham-e-be-sabaati
meri diwar-e-jaan ka taq hai wo

azaem jis se paspa hon safar mein
amir us ko kahen qazzaq hai wo

hawas bhi kya koi khasta sutun hai
darakht-e-narasa ki saq hai wo

banaya us ne sab ko juft 'rahi'
magar har zawiye se taq hai wo
