baitha hua huun subh se larense-bagh men
afkar ka hujum hai mere dimagh men
chhaya hua hai chaar taraf baagh men sukut
tanhaiyon ki god men leta hua huun main
ashjar baar baar Darate hain ban ke bhuut
jab dekhta huun un ki taraf kanpta huun main
baitha hua huun subh se larense-bagh men
larense-bagh kaif o latafat ke khuld-zar
vo mausam-e-nashat vo ayyam-e-nau-bahar
bhule hue manazir-e-rangin bahar ke
afkar ban ke ruuh men meri utar gae
vo mast giit mausam-e-ishrat-fishar ke
gahraiyon ko dil ki gham abad kar gae
larense-bagh kaif o latafat ke khuld-zar
hai asman pe kaali ghataon ka izhdiham
hone lagi hai vaqt se pahle hi aaj shaam
duniya ki aankh niind se jis vaqt jhuk gai
jab kaenat kho gai asrar-e-khvab men
siine men ju-e-ashk hai mere ruki hui
ja kar use bahaunga kunj-e-gulab men
hai asman pe kaali ghataon ka izhdiham
afkar ka hujum hai mere dimagh men
baitha hua huun subh se larense-bagh men
