na tajalliyan na tasalliyan na salam hai na kalam hai
teri jalwa-gah-e-khayal mein bhi sukut hi ka payam hai

abhi husn mahw-e-khiram hai abhi shokh jalwa-e-am hai
kabhi khalwaton mein bhi ram hai ki takhaiyyulat ka dam hai

na wo aarzuen zaban zaban na wo hasraten hain nazar nazar
teri anjuman na wo anjuman na wo shauq hi ka maqam hai

na wo tur-e-naz ki bijliyan na kalim-e-ishq ki shokhiyan
na wo raunaqen na wo ishraten na wo subh hai na wo sham hai

jo sharab-e-husn-o-jamal mein bhi hain bul-hawas ki milawaten
dil-e-mai-parast hai khun-fishan ki ye mai-kade ka nizam hai

dam-e-kaenat fughan-fughan gham-e-mumkinat hai jaan-sitan
ye tasawwuraat dhuan-dhuan ki adam wajud ka nam hai

hai nishan-e-zakhm subu-subu yahan sagharon mein lahu-lahu
ye buka ye nala ye hichkiyan ye fughan-e-shisha-o-jam hai

meri aah raunaq-e-anjuman hai sada-e-dard sukhan-sukhan
teri pardagi ka ye bankpan kahan jalwa hai kahan baam hai

hai talash-e-husn makan-makan wahi justuju hai zaman-zaman
ye fareb 'akhtar'-e-khush-guman dil-e-mubtala ka hi kaam hai
