koī samjhegā kyā rāz-e-gulshan

jab tak uljhe na kāñToñ se dāman

yak-ba-yak sāmne aa na jaanā

ruk na jaa.e kahīñ dil kī dhaḌkan

gul to gul ḳhaar tak chun liye haiñ

phir bhī ḳhālī hai gulchīñ kā dāman

kitnī ārā.ish-e-āshiyāna

TuuT jaa.e na shāḳh-e-nasheman

azmat-e-āshiyāna baḌhā dī

barq ko dost samjhūñ ki dushman

un guloñ se to kāñTe hī achchhe

jin se hotī ho tauhīn-e-gulshan
