husn ne man liya qabil-e-tazir mujhe
nazar aai hai mohabbat ki ye taqsir mujhe

kyun na ho baada-e-sar-josh ki tauqir mujhe
mil gai pir-e-kharabaat se tahrir mujhe

jalwa-e-husn ke mafhum pe jab ghaur kiya
ek dhundli si nazar aai hai taswir mujhe

ab meri wahshat-e-ruswa ka ajab aalam hai
kar diya aap ne wabasta-e-zanjir mujhe

be-takalluf rukh-e-zeba se uthae wo naqab
husn khud paega ek paikar-e-taswir mujhe

zindagi ek nae aalam mein nazar aati hai
le chali aaj kahan gardish-e-taqdir mujhe

khich gai dil-kashi-e-husn mari nazron mein
ji bahalne ko mili aap ki taswir mujhe

zulf-e-shab-gun rukh-e-anwar ki sataish ko siwa
koi mazmun na mila qabil-e-tahrir mujhe

husn-e-dilkash ke talawwun pe nazar jab pahunchi
na raha phir gila-e-gardish-e-taqdir mujhe
