raaz hai ibrat-asar fitrat ki har tahrir ka
mushaf-e-natiq kahan muhtaj hi tafsir ka

mani-e-qadr-o-qaza hai nau-bahaar-e-lala-rang
har dil-e-zarra mein hai jazba nai tamir ka

hikmat-e-adam se hai raushan shabistan-e-jahan
nafs-e-maqsad hai huwaida khaliq-e-taqdir ka

kawish-e-paiham se duniya ki faza jannat-ada
ye tasarruf hai bashar ki quwwat-e-taskhir ka

daulat-e-kaunain musht-e-khak ke daman mein hai
aadmi meamar hai aafaq ki taqdir ka

bahr-e-imka۔n mein habab-asa hai kashti-e-wajud
naqsh-e-fani har tamawwuj sail-e-afat-gir ka

paikar-e-khaki jahan-e-makhzan-e-asrar hai
aadmi shahkar hai allah ki taqdir ka

khun se majbur ke dasht-e-jahan jannat-badosh
shiddat-e-mehnat se dilkash rang hai taswir ka

nala-e-bulbul se fasl-e-gul gareban chaak hai
ghuncha ghuncha said hai baad-e-sahar ke tir ka

maujzan hai qatra-e-shabnam mein sail-e-zindagi
zarra-e-kamtar hai mehwar mehr-e-pur-tanwir ka

iztirab-e-shauq mein dil hath se jata raha
ye asar hai ham-nashin taqrir-e-pur-tasir ka

nashtar-e-wahshat nafas mauj-e-nafas ki sar-kashi
aalam-e-tazir hai dozakh meri taqsir ka

faqr par isar se hain mutmain ruh-o-zamir
dard-e-dil hai khas makhzan ishq ki jagir ka

zarre zarre se hai zahir shahid-e-har-do-jahan
aaina 'bebak' dil hai khaliq-e-taqdir ka
