wo jise dida-wari kahte hain
hum use be-basari kahte hain

nam us ka hai agar ba-khabari
phir kise be-khabari kahte hain

ye agar lutf-o-karam hai to kise
jaur-o-be-dad-gari kahte hain

kya isi kar-e-nazar-bandi ko
husn ki jalwagari kahte hain

gul ke auraq pe kanton ka guman
kya ise khush-nazari kahte hain

bahr-e-bimar dawa hai na dua
kya ise chaaragari kahte hain

kam kisi ko ye khabar hai ki kise
ranj-e-be-baal-o-pari kahte hain

yas-o-hirman ko ba-alfaz-e-digar
aah ki be-asari kahte hain

nam hai wo bhi jigar-dari ka
hum jise be-jigari kahte hain

aap khud bhi to gul-andamon ko
hur kahte hain pari kahte hain

fasl-e-gul hi to hai wo hum jis ko
mausam-e-jama-dari kahte hain

ishq mein ain hunar-mandi hai
sab jise be-hunari kahte hain

muft ki dard-sari ko hum bhi
muft ki dard-sari kahte hain

aap se hum se bani hai na bane
aap khushki ko tari kahte hain

kya koi baat kabhi ahl-e-junun
az-rah-e-nam-wari kahte hain

hum pe ye bhi hai ek ilzam ki hum
dastan dard-bhari kahte hain

koi khush ho ki khafa ho 'hairat'
hum to har baat khari kahte hain
