ho kashf-e-nazar hum pe to ho jae ayan aur
didar musalsal ho saman par ho saman aur

ho kun-fa-yakun aur chale kar-e-zaman aur
paida nae tare hon munawwar ho jahan aur

hon mahr-o-mah-o-najm mere panw ke niche
hon khuld se upar bhi bahut kaun-o-makan aur

ho rakht-e-safar surat-e-burraq hamara
mearaj pe mearaj ho har roz yahan aur

gardish ho ishaaron pe mere shams-o-qamar ki
bantun main har ek fard ko ek umr-e-rawan aur

khaliyon mein jo ghadiyan hain wo qabu mein hon apne
dil aae to piri ho dil aae to jawan aur

ho pairahan-e-subh mein sadiyon ka ujala
ho phir na kabhi sham ki lali mein fughan aur

ho masjid-e-nabwi meri aawaz bilali
wo samne baithe hon main dun ek azan aur

'safwat' sar-e-fihrist hain go lauh-e-takhayyul
kahte hain ki 'ghaalib' ka hai andaz-e-bayan aur
