Phir wahi hum hain KHayal-e-ruKH-e-zeba hai wahi

phir wahi hum hain KHayal-e-ruKH-e-zeba hai wahi
sar-e-shorida wahi ishq ka sauda hai wahi

dana-o-dam sambhaala mere sayyaad ne phir
apni gardan hai wahi ishq ka phanda hai wahi

phir lagi rahne tasawwur mein wo mizhgan-e-daraaz
rag-e-jaan mein KHalish-e-KHar-e-tamanna hai wahi

phir laga rahne wahi silsila-e-naz-o-niyaz
jalwa-e-husn wahi zauq-e-tamasha hai wahi

phir hua hum ko dil-o-din ka bachana mushkil
nigah-e-naz ka phir hum se taqaza hai wahi

naz ne phir kiya aaghaz wo andaz-e-niyaz
husn-e-jaan-soz ko phir soz ka dawa hai wahi

mahw-e-did-e-chaman-e-shauq hai phir dida-e-shauq
gul-e-shadab wahi bulbul-e-shaida hai wahi

phir chamak uTThi wo kajlai hui chingari
raKHt-e-hasti hai wahi ishq ka shoala hai wahi

aarzu ji uThi phir pyar jo us but ne kiya
phir lab-e-yar mein ejaz-e-masiha hai wahi

pas-e-namus ne phir ruKHsat-e-raftan chahi
shohrat-e-husn wahi ulfat-e-ruswa hai wahi

phir hui laila-o-majnun ki hikayat taza
un ka aalam wahi 'nairang' ka naqsha hai wahi
