ishq sho.ala na husn shabnam hai
sab tilism-e-sarisht-e-ādam hai
ab ye māyūsiyoñ kā aalam hai
fart-e-rāhat bhī shiddat-e-ġham hai
aaj is kor dil meñ zamāne meñ
kaun terī adā kā mahram hai
kyuuñ kare vo masarratoñ kī talāsh
jis kī fitrat hī ḳhūgar-e-ġham hai
ik qayāmat hai terā har andāz
har adā fitna-e-mujassam hai
aañkh badlī huī hai duniyā kī
jab se terī nigāh barham hai
mere hī dam se terī mahfil kā
jo bhī zarra hai jān-e-ālam hai
apnī taqdīr kī shikāyat kyā
aap kā iltifāt hī kam hai
apnā sarmāya-e-hayāt 'azīz'
dāman-e-tar hai chashm-e-pur-nam hai
