daman-e-gul qaba-e-saba chehra-e-sahar
hain mustaar jis se ye sare tasawwuraat

wo shakhs mere man ka mere zehn ka jamal
wo shakhs meri jaan-e-ghazal jaan-e-fikr-o-fan

sheron mein us ke husn ki tahdariyon ka aks
har gosha-e-nigah dhanak-rang ek jahan

jaise shafaq faza-e-sukhan par muhit ho
jaise kiran ubharte hue mahtab ki

daman mein harf harf hai sahba liye hue
khushbu ka raushni ka sarapa liye hue
