abad gham-o-dard se virana hai us ka
tuuta hua jo dil hai vo kashana hai us ka
jis dil men ki hai shauq vo paimana hai us ka
jis aankh men hai kaif vo mai-khana hai us ka
jab dekhiye kahta hai vahi zikr sunao
maalum hua shauq bhi divana hai us ka
behosh agar main huun to ba-hosh kahan hai
jo khalq hai is dahr men divana hai us ka
din-rat hai ye maskan-e-anvar-e-tasavvur
siina jise kahte hain pari-khana hai us ka
joban ki safai se phisalti hain nigahen
padti hai jidhar aankh pari-khana hai us ka
ai dil havas-e-vasl se mushtaq hain mahrum
jaan avval-e-didar men begana hai us ka
jo sina-e-raushan hai vo hai manzil-e-ulfat
jo dil sifat-e-shama hai parvana hai us ka
kahte hain jise husn vo hai shama-e-jahan-tab
kahte hain jise ishq vo parvana hai us ka
jab fasl-e-gul aati hai sada deti hai vahshat
zanjir ka gul nala-e-mastana hai us ka
dekha to safar ruuh ko hota hai usi se
kahte hain jise maut vo parvana hai us ka
gauhar se fuzun dida-e-ashiq ke hain aansu
daman men hai maashuq ke jo daana hai us ka
kuchh rutba-e-ashiq se bhi ai jaan ho khabar-dar
saman kai rose se shahana hai us ka
munh ashiq-e-sadiq ke na chadh vaiz-e-makkar
har haal men jo haal hai rindana hai us ka
agah nahin qissa-e-mansur se ai dil
dushman hon zan-o-mard vo yarana hai us ka
kya puchhte ho hal-e-‘nasim’-e-jigar-afgar
dekha jise khush-vaza vo divana hai us ka
