mohabbat naghma bhi hai saz bhi hai
shikast-e-saz ki aawaz bhi hai

hai niyyat hi mein dozakh aur jannat
yahi dam-soz bhi dam-saz bhi hai

na toden mera saz-e-dil na toden
ki is mein aap ki aawaz bhi hai

mohabbat yun to hai ek lafz-e-sada
jo samjho to fasana-saz bhi hai

qafas parwaz-e-dushman to hai lekin
qafas ek dawat-e-parwaz bhi hai

yahi gul hai jo taswir-e-khamoshi
shikast-e-ghuncha ki aawaz bhi hai

nahin zanjir-e-pa hi ye tasawwur
jo bandh jae par-e-parwaz bhi hai

main tera raaz kholun bhi to kyun kar
ki tera raaz mera raaz bhi hai

ye duniya hai jo khwab-e-naz 'rana'
yahi tabir-e-khwab-e-naz bhi hai
