tere naqsh-e-pa hon jis mein wo dagar kahan se laun
ho hamesha sath tera wo safar kahan se laun

koi aish hai dawami na qarar koi daem
na ho jis ki sham koi wo sahar kahan se laun

wo khudi kahan se laun tere jabr ko jo tode
tah-e-tegh sar jhuka de main wo sar kahan se laun

pare aasman se pahunchun yahi aarzu hai lekin
wo tadap kahan se laun main wo par kahan se laun

dar-e-dilruba pe 'jauhar' bhala kaise pahunchun aakhir
main shikasta-pa hun aashiq wo safar kahan se laun
