tere jamal se ai aaftab-e-nankana
nikhar nikhar gaya husn-e-shuur-e-rindana

kuchh aise rang se chheda rabab-e-mastana
ki jhumne laga ruhaniyat ka mai-khana

teri sharab se madhosh ho gae mai-khwar
dui mita ke hum aaghosh ho gae mai-khwar

tera payam tha duba hua tabassum mein
bhari thi ruh-e-latafat tere takallum mein

nawa-e-haq ki kashish thi tere tarannum mein
yaqin ki shama jalai shab-e-tawahhum mein

dilon ko haq se ham-ahang kar diya tu ne
gulon ko gundh ke yak-rang kar diya tu ne

teri nawa ne diya nur aadamiyat ko
mita ke rakh diya hirs-o-hawa ki zulmat ko

dilon se dur kiya sim-o-zar ki raghbat ko
ki pa liya tha tere dil ne haq ki daulat ko

hujum-e-zulmat-e-baatil mein haq-panahi ki
faqir ho ke bhi duniya mein baadshahi ki

teri nigah mein quran-o-did ka aalam
tera khayal tha raaz-e-hayat ka mahram

har ek gul pe tapakti thi pyar ki shabnam
ki bas gaya tha nazar mein bahisht ka mausam

nafas nafas mein kali rang-o-bu ki dhalti thi
nasim thi ki farishton ki sans chalti thi

teri sharab se baba farid the sarshaar
tere khulus se be-khud the sufiyan-e-kibar

kahan kahan nahin pahunchi tere qadam ki bahaar
tere amal ne sanware jahan ke kirdar

teri nigah ne sahba-e-agahi de di
bashar ke hath mein qindil-e-zindagi de di

tere payam se aisi ki thi masihai
tere sukhan mein habib-e-khuda ki ranai

tere kalam mein gautam ka nur-e-danai
tere tarane mein murli ka lahn-e-yaktai

har ek nur nazar aaya tere paikar mein
tamam nikhaten simti hain ek gul-e-tar mein

jahan jahan bhi gaya tu ne aagahi banti
andheri raat mein chahat ki raushni banti

ata kiya dil-e-bedar zindagi banti
fasad-o-jang ki duniya mein shanti banti

bahaar aai khili pyar ki kali har su
tere nafas se nasim-e-sahar chali har su

raza-e-haq ko najat-e-bashar kaha tu ne
tainat-e-khudi ko zarar kaha tu ne

wafa-nigar ko haqiqat-nigar kaha tu ne
zuhur-e-ishq ko sachchi sahar kaha tu ne

jahan-e-ishq mein kuchh besh-o-kam ka farq na tha
teri nigah mein dair-o-haram ka farq na tha

bataya tu ne ki irfan se aashna hona
kabhi na aashiq-e-duniya-e-be-wafa hona

badi se sham-o-sahar jang-azma hona
khuda se dur na ai banda-e-khuda hona

nashe mein daulat-o-zar ke na chur ho jaana
qarib aae jo duniya to dur ho jaana

jo ruh ban ke sama jae har rag-o-pai mein
to phir na shahd mein lazzat na saghar-e-mai mein

wahi hai saz ke parde mein lahn mein lai mein
usi ki zat ki parchhaiyan har ek shai mein

na mauj hai na sitaron ki aab hai koi
tajalliyon ke idhar aaftab hai koi

abad ka nur faraham kiya sahar ke liye
diya payam bahaaron ka dasht-o-dar ke liye

diye jala diye tarik rahguzar ke liye
jiya bashar ke liye jaan di bashar ke liye

dua ye hai ki rahe ishq hashr tak tera
zamin pe aam ho ye dard-e-mushtarak tera

khuda kare ki zamana sune teri aawaz
har ek jabin ko mayassar ho tera aks-e-niyaz

jahan mein aam ho tere hi pyar ka andaz
khulus-e-dil se ho puja khulus-e-dil se namaz

tere payam ki barakat se nek ho jaen
ye imtiyaz miten log ek ho jaen
