ruh mein tazgi nahin qalb mein raushni nahin
teri qasam tere baghair zindagi zindagi nahin

tazkira-e-khuda nahin silsila-e-khudi nahin
ab main wahan hun jis jagah mere siwa koi nahin

sajda-e-dost ke liye chahiye jazb-e-be-khudi
bandagi aur ba-qaid-e-hosh kufr hai bandagi nahin

sust qadam the mehr-o-mah rah gae misl-e-gard-e-rah
manzil-e-ishq mein mera ham-safar ab koi nahin

zauq-e-talab hai hasil-e-husn-e-tamam-e-kaenat
talib-e-did bhi to ho jawon ki kuchh kami nahin

naghma-e-dil pe jhumna pa-e-sanam ko chumna
zahid-e-khushk-tar abhi waqif-e-bandagi nahin

'arzu' dil ke sath sath hosh-o-khirad bhi phunk de
ishq mein aarzu-e-ishq shan-e-qalandari nahin
