mujassam ishwa-o-andaz bhi hai
magar aurat jahan-e-raaz bhi hai

sitam-araiyan taslim lekin
nihayat mukhlis-o-dam-saz bhi hai

shakt-e-arzu ki baat kaisi
hujum-e-arzu ka raaz bhi hai

agar kotah-nazari ho na hail
to shayad markaz-e-parwaz bhi hai

kahin afsana-e-ishq-o-mohabbat
kahin rudad-e-soz-o-saz bhi hai

yahi taqdis-e-maryam zabt-e-sita
yahi ayyar-o-shahid-baz bhi hai

isi se raunaq-e-har-anjuman bhi
yahi har fitne ka aaghaz bhi hai

yahi ganjina-e-zauq-e-nihani
mashiyyat ka yahi eajaz bhi hai

jahan hai sar-ba-sajda ishq ab tak
yahi wo bargah-e-naz bhi hai

faza-e-al-jazair jis pe qurban
ek aisi pur-asar aawaz bhi hai

gharz aurat jahan-e-ab-o-gil mein
zamana bhi zamana-saz bhi hai
