tūfāñ kī zad pe apnā safīna jab aa gayā
sāhil ko mauj mauj ko sāhil banā gayā
muñh takte takte thak ga.iiñ hirmāñ-nasībiyāñ
har inqalāb-e-shauq kī himmat baḌhā gayā
zauq-e-nazar kī jur.at bebāk al-amāñ
rañg-e-hayāt ban ke fazāoñ pe chhā gayā
tharrā ke sham-e-anjuman-e-aish bujh ga.ī
nairañg-e-nūr-e-sub.h-o-manzar dikhā gayā
ijz-e-rah-e-niyāz ke qurbān jā.iye
naqsh-e-qadam ko naqsh-e-tamannā banā gayā
itnā karam bhī jabr-e-mohabbat kā kam nahīñ
ghuT ghuT ke marne vāloñ ko jiinā sikhā gayā
sho.ale se kyuuñ lapakte haiñ gulshan se baar baar
'yāqūb' kyā bahār kā mausam phir aa gayā
