yar ko hum ne ja-ba-ja dekha
kahin zahir kahin chhupa dekha

kahin mumkin hua kahin wajib
kahin fani kahin baqa dekha

did apne ki thi use khwahish
aap ko har tarah bana dekha

surat-e-gul mein khil-khila ke hansa
shakl-e-bulbul mein chahchaha dekha

shama ho kar ke aur parwana
aap ko aap mein jala dekha

kar ke dawa kahin anal-haq ka
bar-sar-e-dar wo khincha dekha

tha wo bartar shuma-o-ma se niyaz
phir wahi ab shuma-o-ma dekha

kahin hai baadshah-e-takht-nashin
kahin kasa liye gada dekha

kahin aabid bana kahin zahid
kahin rindon ka peshwa dekha

kahin wo dar-libas-e-mashuqan
bar-sar-e-naz aur ada dekha

kahin aashiq 'niyaz' ki surat
sina-biryan o dil-jala dekha
