Ye arz-e-shauq hai aaraish-e-bayan bhi to ho

ye arz-e-shauq hai aaraish-e-bayan bhi to ho
ada-shanas to hai aankh KHun-chakan bhi to ho

KHuda KHafa hai to sachche hain nasehan-e-aziz
hamare lab pe kabhi shikwa-e-butan bhi to ho

ye rang-o-nikhat-o-tarkib-o-lafz KHira-sari
ze-rah-e-dida ba-dil-mauj-e-KHun-rawan bhi ho

hamein bhi naghmagari par hai naz baat to kar
hamein bhi jaan nahin pyari hai imtihan bhi to ho

abhi to hun dar-o-diwar hi se mahw-e-kalam
harif-e-daulat-e-gham koi raazdan bhi to ho

qatil-e-naz hun ai wa-e-e'timad-e-wafa
wo iltifat kare pahle bad-guman bhi to ho

kisi ko un se mohabbat kisi ko mujh se hasad
milen wo mujh se magar koi darmiyan bhi to ho
