munh na dhanko ab to surat dekh li
dekh li ai hur-e-talat dekh li

shakl badli aur surat ho gai
ek nazar jis ne wo surat dekh li

ek but sajda nahin karta tujhe
bas khudaya teri qudrat dekh li

hai ayan haal-e-sag-e-ashab-e-kahf
jaanwar ki aadamiyyat dekh li

chaar din bhi to na tum se nibh saki
aap ki sahab-salamat dekh li

jaante the hum na iza hijr ki
wo bhi sahib ki badaulat dekh li

ghurte hain ab nigah-e-qahr se
chaar din chashm-e-inayat dekh li

kyun ajal ab zahr piswata hun main
rah teri ek muddat dekh li

khul gai bande pe qadr-o-manzilat
thi jo sahib ki haqiqat dekh li

ja ke ghar jhuton na puchhi baat tak
bas teri jhuti mohabbat dekh li

us se kah aadat se jo waqif na ho
dekh li khu teri khaslat dekh li

bahr-e-hasti mein faqat misl-e-habab
hai mujhe ek dam ki mohlat dekh li

aap hairan hoga apne husn ka
aaine mein gar wo surat dekh li

chandni raaton mein chillata phira
chand si jis ne wo surat dekh li

phir wahi hai boriya aur apna faqr
chaar din ki jah-o-hashmat dekh li

kyun churaata hai wo kafir mujh se aankh
kya nigah-e-chashm-e-hasrat dekh li

yaad aaya 'rind' wo paiman-shikan
gar kahin baham mohabbat dekh li
