Na kyun ki ashk-e-musalsal ho rahnuma dil ka

na kyun ki ashk-e-musalsal ho rahnuma dil ka
tariq-e-ishq mein jari hai silsila dil ka

dikha ke dast-e-hinai na KHun baha dil ka
ki aur rang se lunga main KHun-baha dil ka

main tifl-e-ashk ko mizhgan pe dekh hairan hun
ki nur-e-dida hai ya hai baalaka dil ka

tu aaine pe na apne kar ai sikandar naz
ki hum bhi rakhte hain jam-e-jahan-numa dil ka

bahisht pahunche hai zahid! kab us ki wusat ko
ajab rawish ka hai ye bagh-e-dil-kusha dil ka

baja hun sar-ba-gareban ki us ke daman tak
na pahuncha aah kabhi dast-e-na-rasa dil ka

tere KHadang-e-mizha se hai yak-qalam majruh
na puchh ai but-e-bad-kesh! majra dil ka

lagai kis but-e-mai-nosh ne hai tak us par
subu-ba-dosh hai saqi jo aabla dil ka

hazar bain kahen kyun na ahl-e-binai
ki saf bu-qalamon hai ye aaina dil ka

bahaar tujh ko dikhaenge hum bhi ai gul-ru
kisi rawish se jo ghuncha kabhi khila dil ka

zuhur-e-jalwa-e-mabud hai bahar-surat
rakha hai nam baja KHana-e-KHuda dil ka

ruwaq-e-chashm mein mat rah ki hai makan-e-nuzul
tere to waste ye qasr hai bana dil ka

qarar o taqat o sabr o KHirad hue sab gum
tumhaari zulf mein abtar hai haal kya dil ka

kahenge hum ye sarasar jo koi puchhega
sawad-e-hind mein luTa hai qafila dil ka

na kyunki aah se KHatir nishan ho ab meri
ki tir ye nahin karta kabhi KHata dil ka

hamare dagh se bhanwre ko kya bhala nisbat
ki wo rafiq hai gul ka ye aashna dil ka

laga na dil ko tu apne kisi se dekh 'nasir'
bura na man ki is mein nahin bhala dil ka
