ru-e-mahtab ki zau-fishani liye
sach ki parchhaiyan raqs mein hain magan

soz-e-pinhan liye jaan-e-uryan liye
kahkashan kahkashan raushni ke diye

maujzan zau-fagan arsh se farsh tak
azm ka hath mein apne parcham liye

chashm-e-bina agar hai to tum dekh lo
ya kisi banda-e-haq se tum puchh lo

qalb-e-raushan agar hai to ai ham-nashin
shab ki tarikiyan zulf ke pech-o-kham

tar-e-resham ki surat nikhar jaenge
jitne nasur hain dil ke bhar jaenge

jhut khud aag mein apni jal jaega
surat-e-khak har-su bikhar jaega
