Kiya bagh-e-jahan mein nam un ka sarw kah kah kar

kiya bagh-e-jahan mein nam un ka sarw kah kah kar
kai aahen jo nikli thin mere sine se rah rah kar

sahab-o-barq hain ya shisha-o-saghar hain kya hum tum
ki hum jis waqt rowen tum hanso us waqt qah qah kar

hamara girya dekhe chashm-e-kam se kyun na dariya ko
samundar se kai jate hain yan ek pal mein bah bah kar

hue jis gul ke hum chah-e-zaqan mein gharq kar denge
mere yak qatra-e-shabnam mein bulbul Dub chah chah kar

dhamak wo aah ke nare ki apne hai ki gardun se
sitare TuTe paDte hain kuen jate hain dah dah kar

bara-e-imtihan ushshaq par teghe chalata hai
jo zaKHmi ho ke girte hain to rah jata hai dah dah kar

dila kuche se us ke aaj agar tu KHair se aaya
yahi din kal bhi hai dar-pesh sheKHi se na pah pah kar

namaz-e-shaiKH ho itmam kyunkar sarqa dushman hai
ki TuTe hai wuzu har bar jab khate hain ah ah kar

imarat to Dahe phir ban sake hai par tere hathon
hue hain KHak kya kya qasr-e-dil ai shoKH Dhah Dhah kar

na ho ruKH se tere ai aah faujon ka muqabil ruKH
kiya tu ne sawaron ko piyaada mat shah shah kar

lab-e-baam aa ke abru ki jhamak din sulh ke dikhla
ki aalim dekhne ko shahar ka dauDe hai mah mah kar

zamin mein gaD gae dekh us qad-e-rana ko KHajlat se
lab-e-ju par akaDte the khaDe kya sarw lah lah kar

wafaen roz-e-awwal se meri tujh ko na KHush aain
jafa mein main teri aaKHir hua bhar umr sah sah kar

idhar to jama-chin khole hai us gul-ru ke daman ko
udhar bulbul rakhe hai raKHt-e-gul KHajlat se tah tah kar

laData hai agar aghyar se tu roz-o-shab aankhen
'muhib' apne par ai zalim nigah-e-lutf gah gah kar
