ek majma-e-rangin mein wo ghabrai hui si
baithi hai ajab naz se sharmai hui si

aankhon mein haya lab pe hansi aai hui si
honton pe fida ruh-e-bahaar-o-gul-o-nasrin

aankhon ki chamak ru-kash-e-bazm-e-mah-o-parwin
pairahan-e-zar-tar mein ek paikar-e-simin

lahren si wo leta hua ek phul ka sehra
sehre mein jhamakta hua ek chand sa chehra

ek rang sa rukh par kabhi halka kabhi gahra
har sans mein ehsas-e-farawan ki kahani

khamoshi-e-mahbub mein ek sail-e-maani
jazbaat ke tufan mein hai doshiza jawani

fitrat nae jazbaat ke dar khol rahi hai
mizan-e-jawani mein use taul rahi hai

lab sakit o samit hain nazar bol rahi hai
sarshaar nigahon mein haya jhum rahi hai

hain raqs mein aflak zamin ghum rahi hai
shair ki wafa badh ke qadam chum rahi hai

ai tu ki tere dam se meri zamzama-khwani
ho tujh ko mubarak ye teri nur-jahani

afkar se mahfuz rahe teri jawani
chhalke teri aankhon se sharab aur ziyaada

mahken tere aariz ke gulab aur ziyaada
allah kare zor-e-shabab aur ziyaada
