Ila ya shah-e-KHuban kijiye shad

ila ya shah-e-KHuban kijiye shad
hue jate hain aashiq gham se barbaad

hamein tum yaad ho har lahza lekin
hamari bhi kabhi to kijiye yaad

giraftar-e-bala baalae tu yar
gham-e-dauran se hain jun sarw aazad

agar laila hai tu majnun hain hum
wagar shirin hai tu hum hain farhad

wahi irad kar sakta hai aaKHir
kiya hai jis ne awwal hum ko ijad

kisi shai ko durust-o-chust daem
na dekha dar-jahan-e-sust buniyaad

sher hai ashk-e-chashm-o-laKHt-e-dil se
uThaya chahiye ham-ab o ham-zad

gul-e-tar KHar se samjhen batar-tar
jo dekhen andaliban rote sayyaad

gulu-e-gul to pakDe aaKHir-kar
gae kab raegan bulbul ke fariyaad

abas karte ho bahr-e-tark takrar
azizo hun main duKHt-e-raz ka damad

nahin jis rose miad aamad-e-yar
wahi hum jaante hain roz-e-miad

bahut farzana the diwane hum ko
banae shoKH tiflan-e-pari-zad

hamal mirriKH mashuqon ne mera
kiya hai sar juda az tegh-e-be-dad

hazaran shukr mulk-e-sindh mein bhi
mera maskan hai shahr-e-hyderabad

janab haidar-e-safdar se 'matam'
talab auqat-e-mushkil mein kar imdad
