wo aariz gulabi wo gesu ghanere
isi samt hain dida-o-dil ke phere

ujale ki rudad wo dil likhega
ki jis dil se paspa hue hain andhere

bada farq hai tere mere jahan mein
idhar zulmat-e-shab udhar hain sawere

kisi se kabhi aap-biti na kahna
umad aaenge har taraf se andhere

khulus-o-dil-o-jaan meri kam-nigahi
fareb-e-musalsal bhi ehsan tere

wo ek wada-e-jam-e-sarshaar-o-rangin
wo ek sham lekin hazaron sawere

har ek fitna-gar dekh le rang-e-'saifi'
isi aashiyane mein sukh ke basere
