teri nazar mein hai tamam raaz-e-hayat qaum ka
tere nafas se murtaish raaz-e-hayat qaum ka

teri nazar ka nur hai bazm-e-tajalliyat mein
jaan si tu ne dal di paikar-e-kaenat mein

dard hai mere dil mein bhi tere dil-e-gudaz ka
naqsh hai na-tamam abhi masti-e-soz-o-saz ka

ruh-e-hayat-e-shaeri tujh se hi kaamran hui
meri hayat nau-ba-nau rang se shadman hui

saz-e-azimat-e-khudi chhed sala-e-am de
qaum-e-shikasta-haal ko aa ke koi payam de
