ishq hai dariyā-e-ātish tair kar jaane kā naam

husn hai sehn-e-chaman meñ phuul barsāne kā naam

rāt-bhar sham-e-hazīñ is fikr meñ jaltī rahī

kyuuñ buland āḳhir hai is duniyā meñ parvāne kā nā

lailā-o-shīrīñ kī kyā kuchh kahiye ab is gul kī baat

aaj hai ūñchā chaman meñ jis ke afsāne kā naam

tūr-e-dil kī ḳhair ho ab tāb-e-nazzāra kahāñ

husn kā jalva tumhāre barq gir jaane kā naam

tū chaman hai aur tirī raftār hai mauj-e-nasīm

ḳhāmushī ġhuncha hañsī hai phuul khil jaane kā naam

kahkashāñ hai maañg terī ġhāza-e-ruḳh chāñdnī

qad zamīñ par māh-o-anjum ke utar aane kā naam

jab kabhī shānoñ pe zulf-e-ambarīñ lahrā ga.ī

bas yahī hai nik.hat-e-gul ke mahak jaane kā naam
