uf wo jamuna ke qarin dehat ka dilkash saman
unchi-nichi si wo diwaren wo kuchh tute makan

rashk ho firdaus ko naqsha hai wo dehat ka
sabz kahi ki bahaar aur wo saman barsat ka

aasman karta hai shab-bhar gauhar-e-anjum nisar
phul karti hai nichhawar har sahar baad-e-bahaar

wo rawish kheton ki jis par takhta-e-jannat nisar
kyariyan wo dilruba ho jalwa-e-fitrat nisar

shahr ki thandi hawa se nakhl tha har ek nihan
thi khas-o-khashak pani par ki aaine pe baal

sabz dhanon ka wo ta-hadd-e-nazar ek silsila
wo ghane paude nazar ko thi na til rakhne ki ja

thi banafsha sath par pani ki yun aai hui
zulf ho jis tarah aaine pe lahrai hui

uf wo sannata wo khamoshi faza ki muttasil
khadkhadaya jab koi patta dhadak uthta tha dil

lahlaha utthen shajar wo sham ki thandi hawa
chhut wo mahtab ki badh jae pani khet ka

ud rahe hain is tarah mauj-e-hawa ke sath mein
jaan goya pad gai hai khak ke zarraat mein

dubta suraj wo chadhti dhup wo dilkash saman
surkhi-e-mashriq se wo uthta hua shab ka dhuan

bel har-su ishq-e-pechan ki wo lahrai hui
aasman ki tarah chakkar mein zamin aai hui
