utthi hai jab se dil mein mere ishq ki tarang
shadi o gham hain aage mere donon ek rang

jab se hua hun baada-e-tauhid se main mast
uthti hai dil se naghma-e-mansur ki umang

dil andarun-e-sina magar ho gaya hai khun
nikle hain meri aaankhon se jo ashk surkh rang

pahunche hai tir-e-ah mera arsh ke pare
jab se laga hai dil mein mere ishq ka khadang

nairangiyan teri hain hui jaise jalwa-gar
hosh-o-hawas-o-aql-e-rasa jumla hain ye dang

ek bar gar wo dekhe tere rukh ko be-naqab
kaba-parast howe wahin par but-e-farang

kar nam-o-nang tark dila rah-e-ishq mein
aashiq wahi hai jis ko ki hai is se aar-o-nang

mat rakh tu bahr-e-ishq mein ai bul-hawas qadam
har qatre mein yahan hain bala ke do sad nahang

'asim' main kya karun shah-e-khadim ki ab sana
hai pa-e-aql arsa-e-midhat mein us ke lang
