main us ko dekhun to jage shuur-e-khwabida
main us ko sochun to phute ufuq pe subh ki pau

rida-e-shab ko samete kiran tamanna ki
rah-e-hayat se zulmat ka karwan hat jae

sanam-kada wo mohabbat ka us ki dewi bhi
main us ko husn likhun husn ki kitab likhun

kanwal tarashun ki chehre ko ek gulab likhun
shabih-e-fikr likhun paikar-e-khayal likhun

mataa-e-sher likhun sher ka jamal likhun
suluk lahje ka us ke ki jaise amrit-ras

wo jaan-farebi-e-izhaar-e-dil-nawaz-e-sukhan
jabin pe wusat-e-qalb-o-nazar ki tahriren

hadis-e-mehr-o-wafa ki hasin tafsiren
ghurur-e-ishq un aankhon ka ehtiram kare

wo aasman hai zamin us se kya kalam kare
