ya-rab kahan gaya hai wo sarw-e-shokh-rana
hai chob-e-khushk jis bin meri nazar mein tuba

didar de shitabi jalne ki tab nin hai
is hijr ki agan sin dozakh ki aag aula

tauq-e-gulu-e-dil hai zulf-e-sanam ka har kham
mashhur ye masal hai yak sar hazar sauda

hai khatm yar-e-jaani tere dahan ki tangi
kahne ki baat nin hai barik hai muamma

ai gul-badan nazar kar dagh-e-jigar kun mere
gar aarzu hai tujh kun gulzar ka tamasha

maskan hua hai mera jab sin teri gali mein
ai gul-ezar tab sin jannat ki nin tamanna

hai ai 'siraj' har shab mahtab-ru ke gham mein
aansu ka mere jhamka jyun khosha-e-surayya
