teri nigah ka ye inqalab dekha hai
dil-o-nazar mein ajab iztirab dekha hai

kabhi to ishq mein ye inqalab dekha hai
ki apne aap ko hi be-hijab dekha hai

zamin-e-shahr-e-wafa kyon na ho falak ka jawab
har ek zarra yahan aaftab dekha hai

jo be-misal hai duniya mein ishq-e-parwana
to husn-e-shama ko bhi la-jawab dekha hai

diya hai jis ne khud apne lahu ka nazrana
rah-e-wafa mein use kaamyab dekha hai

har ek daur mein ahl-e-sitam zalil hue
jise bhi dekha to khana-kharab dekha hai

nigah-e-naz ke andaz jaante hain hum
hamin ne raqs mein jam-e-sharab dekha hai

tasawwuraat mein rakhte hain ek hasin chehra
kisi ne hum sa bhi ahl-e-kitab dekha hai

ye rahnuma nahin rahzan hain daur-e-hazir ke
kahin bhi tum ne inhen kaamyab dekha hai
