Ye shahr shahr-e-bala bhi hai kina-saz ke sath

ye shahr shahr-e-bala bhi hai kina-saz ke sath
nikal chalo kisi mahbub-e-dil-nawaz ke sath

yahi nawa-e-adam hai yahi nawazish-e-kun
KHusha hikayat-e-nai harf-e-nai-nawaz ke sath

su-e-nigar-o-su-e-shahr-e-zar-nigar chalen
qalandran-e-hawasnak-o-pak-baz ke sath

salam ham-nafaso al-firaq ham-safaro
safar hai dur ka wo bhi rah-e-daraaz ke sath

ye KHirqa-posh faqiran-e-KHariq-ul-adat
hamare qafila-ha-e-niyaz-o-naz ke sath

ye jangalon ki masafat ye naghma-e-daf-o-chang
ye wadiyon mein iqamat surud-o-saz ke sath

wo wajd-o-haal ka aalam wo raqs-e-darweshan
shahan-e-naz-o-gadayan-e-be-niyaz ke sath

KHusha wo bang-e-azan wo tarana-e-naqus
wo bandagi-e-sanam banda-e-namaz ke sath

har ek faqir ke lab par ye nara-e-mastan
chale chalo adab-o-izz-o-imtiyaz ke sath
