Sar-Ta-Ba-Qadam Ek Hasin Raaz Ka Aalam

Ghulam Rabbani Taban

sar-ta-ba-qadam ek hasin raaz ka aalam

allah re ik fitnagar-e-naaz ka aalam

zulfon men vo barsat ki raton ki javani

aariz pe vo anvar-e-sahar-saz ka aalam

unvan-e-soḳhan ‘ghalib’ o ‘momin’ ka taghazzul

andaz-e-nazar bada-e-shiraz ka aalam

duz-dida nigahon men ik ilham ki duniya

nazuk se tabassum men ik ejaaz ka aalam

uljhe hue jumlon men shararat bhi haya bhi

jazbat men Duuba hua avaz ka aalam

is sadgi-e-husn men kis darja kashish hai

har naaz men ik jazba-e-ghammaz ka aalam

us said ko kya kahiye jo ḳhud aa.e tah-e-dam

dil men liye ik hasrat-e-parvaz ka aalam

yuun to na tasahul na taghaful na tajahul

kuchh aur hai us kafir-e-tannaz ka aalam

shoḳhi men shararat men matanat men haya men

jo raaz ka aalam tha vahi raaz ka aalam
