kahan le jaun dil ko ya-ilahi
gunah thahri hai meri be-gunahi

panah-e-har-do-alam ban gai hai
junun-e-ishq teri be-panahi

dilon par kar gai hai sehr kya kya
hasinon ki ada-e-kam-nigahi

ye aahat hai usi sarw-e-rawan ki
dil-e-betab deta hai gawahi

takalluf-bartaraf ye mai-kada hai
nahin yan rah-o-rasm-e-uzr-khwahi

jigar ke sath duniya-e-adab se
hui rukhsat wo shan-e-kaj-kulahi

'majaz' ab lakhnau tujh bin hai suna
fughan-e-shab na aah-e-subh-gahi

shuur-e-manzil-e-nau aaj bhi hai
teri laghzish teri gum-karda-rahi

mubarak ho tujhe ai khana viran
jahan-e-mai-kada ki baadshahi

giran hai taj-daran-e-chaman par
asiran-e-qafas ki dad-khwahi

maal-e-hasrat-e-tamir kya hai
'jamal' apne bhare ghar ki tabahi
