sard raaton ka hasin ek khwab hai chehra tera
kya kahun bas manzar-e-nayab hai chehra tera

nikhat-e-gesu ko teri nikhat-e-sumbul likhun
tere narm-o-nazuk in honton ko barg-e-gul likhun

aarzu par ye araq lagta hai shabnam ki tarah
aur sani is mein laten lagti hai resham ki tarah

jaise koi gulshan-e-shadab hai chehra tera
kya kahun bas manzar-e-nayab hai chehra tera

nur se kuchh is tarah hai chashm teri tar-ba-tar
chandni ka aks jon utra ho sath-e-ab par

putliyan donon teri aankhon mein do nilam lage
aur teri aankhon ka pani mujh ko jam-e-jam lage

waqt-e-subh ye aalam-e-simab hai chehra tera
kya kahun bas manzar-e-nayab hai chehra tera

qaul har nikla zaban se jo teri shahdab hai
aur labon ka til kitab-e-ishq ka ek bab hai

hai musawwir ki tere ang ang mein gul-kariyan
moajiza lagti hai tere husn ki ranginiyan

gauhar-e-nayab hai zartab hai chehra tera
kya kahun bas manzar-e-nayab hai chehra tera
