tumhein guman hai ki zauq-e-yaqin hai wajh-e-jumud
asir-e-qaid-e-tilismat-e-in-o-an tum ho

maqam-e-sidra-o-tuba ki kya khabar tum ko
abhi to chand sitaron ke darmiyan tum ho

ye irtiqa ki tag-o-dau ye jehd-e-fikr-o-amal
guman ke dam se hai in ka wajud kahte ho

muzaharaat-e-jahan par tumhein yaqin kyon hai
yaqin ko tum to bina-e-jumud kahte ho

isi yaqin pe banate ho zindagi ke mahal
isi yaqin ko samajhte ho zehn ki taqsir

yahi yaqin to hai surat-kusha-e-naqsh-e-hayat
isi yaqin se to pani pe khinchte ho lakir

isi yaqin se jo ek khatt-e-mustaqim-e-hayat
zamin pe khinchna chahen to hum hain saudai

tumhin batao ki donon mein kaun afzal hai
hamara zauq-e-yaqin ya tumhaari danai
