soz-parwar nigah rakhte hain
hum nazar mein bhi aah rakhte hain

is hujum-e-tajalliyat mein hum
hasrat-e-yak-nigah rakhte hain

ye talluq jahan se kafi hai
aap se rasm-o-rah rakhte hain

bakhsh dega wo bakhshne wala
bas ye uzr-e-gunah rakhte hain

hum hijabaat se nahin mayus
jalwa pesh-e-nigah rakhte hain

gham wasila hai aur tu maqsud
hum ye manzil ye rah rakhte hain

ek jalwa dikha nahin sakte
wo jo ek jalwa-gah rakhte hain

koi aalam ho hazrat-e-'tabish'
kaj hamesha kulah rakhte hain
