husn achchha hai mohammad ka kamal achchha hai
jo khuda ko bhi hai pyara wo jamal achchha hai

bazm-e-kaunain murattab hui teri khatir
waqt hai tere liye is mein jo mal achchha hai

mujh se puchhe to koi tere ghulamon ka uruj
baadshahon se bhi rutbe mein bilal achchha hai

gham uthane ki hai aadat meri tab-e-sani
main to kahta hun ki duniya mein malal achchha hai

qissa-e-tur se waqif hai zamana sara
koi kis munh se kahe shauq-e-jamal achchha hai

bazm mein dekh ke hasrat se kisi ko chup hun
dar-haqiqat yahi andaz-e-sawal achchha hai

jis mein ek din bhi mayassar ho mulaqat ki raat
mere nazdik to wo mah wo sal achchha hai

lutf deta hai mujhe tera tasawwur shab-e-gham
sach kaha karte hain achchhon ka khayal achchha hai

jab se dekhe hain tumhaare lab-o-abru hum ne
na kaha hai na kahenge ki hilal achchha hai

tujh se hat kar kahin padti hi nahin meri nazar
yun to yusuf ka bhi hone ko jamal achchha hai

aashiqon ke liye kis kaam ka hai sabr-o-qarar
jo tere gham mein rahe muztarib haal achchha hai

us ne dekha hi nahin qamat-e-zeba tera
jo ye kahta ho ki gulshan mein nihaal achchha hai

phir wahi zikr hai arbab-e-karam ka 'rasikh'
hum samajhte hain ye andaz-e-sawal achchha hai
