ye subh-o-sham meri hai na saz-o-rakht mera
hai koi aur jo karta hai bandobast mera

dimagh-e-sair-e-nafas soz-o-saz-e-ranj-o-nishat
miyan-e-bim-o-raja hai ye bud-o-hast mera

mujhe hai zarra-e-khaki bhi matla-e-gardun
buland-bin hai khayal-e-buland-o-past mera

mere fasane mein yazdan bhi ahrman bhi magar
wo dhundhta raha unwan-e-sarguzasht mera

ye ladkhadate sitare ye ju-e-mast-e-khiram
bikhar raha hai khayal-e-junun-parast mera

mere nadim-e-dil-o-jaan pe khusrawi taslim
shahi asa-e-dil-ara ki taj-o-takht mera

falak-numa tha jamal-e-ghazal ram-khurda
usi ke sath gaya aasman-e-bakht mera

na jaane kyun use sach nagawar guzra hai
ki dil-nawaz tha lahja na tha karakht mera
