jo khush-nasib tere ishq mein kharab hue
ba-e-e'tibar-e-haqiqat wo kaamyab hue

gham-e-dawam ke asrar be-naqab hue
ye chand jure kahan tak asar-ma-ab hue

meri nigah mein wo jalwe sehr-kar nahin
jo jalwe aam nigahon mein be-naqab hue

chala main un ka tasawwur kiye hue jis waqt
jo zarre rah mein aae wo aaftab hue

teri qarabat unhen bhi kahan mayassar hai
tere jamal-kade mein jo baryab hue

karishma-sazi-e-jazbaat-e-ishq are tauba
haqir zarre tere husn ka jawab hue

idhar banaya hai qasr-e-tasawwuraat-e-jamil
udhar hum un ke liye khanuman-kharab hue

ye hadsat-e-mohabbat are khuda ki panah
tumhaari bazm mein 'bismil' bhi baryab hue
