na matlab gulon se na gulshan se hai
mohabbat hamein apne dushman se hai

chaman par nahin girti ye bijliyan
adawat hamare nasheman se hai

nigahen lada kar nazar pherna
ye aadat tumhaari ladakpan se hai

mohabbat ki majburiyan dekhiye
hamein khwahish-e-rahm dushman se hai

wo phir dekhte aa ke dard-e-jigar
wo phir puchhte tirchhi chitwan se hai

na puchh ham-nashin haal-e-josh-e-junun
kharabi ayan mere daman se hai

kahin dil churaen na aankhen teri
mujhe khauf in donon rahzan se hai

chaman mein jo khak aa rahi hai nazar
yahi yaadgar-e-nasheman se hai

ajab rang ka jurm hai aadmi
ki yarana shaikh-o-barahman se hai
