kyun na kahen bashar ko hum aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad
qudrat-e-haq se hain baham aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad

akhgar-e-ghuncha aab-ju gard-e-chaman nasim-e-subh
hain ye girah-kusha-e-gham aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad

huqqe ko ahl-e-marifat kyun-ki na samjhen hamdam ab
ye bhi rakhe hai besh-o-kam aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad

sozish-e-dagh-o-abla gard-e-alam shumar-e-dam
hijr mein chaaron hain baham aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad

barq-o-sahab o gard-baad dasht-e-junun mein sath hain
hain ye mere rafiq-e-dam aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad

ru o araq ghubar-e-khat jumbish-e-zulf ki hawa
chaaron hain dil ke haq mein sam aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad

chashm mein aatishin hain ashk dil mein ghubar-e-ah-e-sard
donon se lete hain janam aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad

mujh ko khudai ki qasam rakhte hain ghere dam-ba-dam
tere ye ishq mein sanam aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad

kyun na hawas-e-khamsa gum ahl-e-sukhan ke hon 'nasir'
tujh hi se bas hue raqam aatish-o-ab o khak-o-baad
