navak-zani nigah ki ai jan-e-jan hai hech
jab tiir hi na paar hua to kaman hai hech
dair-o-haram bhi hech hain aur hech bagh-o-ragh
koi jagah ho be tire ai la-makan hai hech
firdaus ham ko saya-e-daman-e-yar hai
duniya ki asl kuchh nahin bagh-e-jinan hai hech
kuchh maut ka na gham hai na kuchh rahat-e-hayat
kuche men us ke mujh ko bahar-o-khizan hai hech
charagari karega jo vo hai mizaj-dan
dard-e-darun ka ru-ba-ru us ke bayan hai hech
ho ja ke ku-e-yar men ai murgh-e-jan muqim
bagh-o-bahar hech hai aur ashiyan hai hech
qatil ke paas jaunga main khud hi sar-ba-kaf
maqtal men us ka aana pae imtihan hai hech
kya takiya us pe kijiye aalam hai be-sabat
hasti abas hayat abas jism-o-jan hai hech
tauhid-e-ishq men mujhe donon hain ek se
marg-o-hayat hech hai sud-o-ziyan hai hech
jo us ki khubiyon ka sana-khvan na ho kabhi
vo hech aur us ke dahan men zaban hai hech
huun mahv-e-did aankh uthaun main kis taraf
dekhun main kis ko juz tire husn-e-butan hai hech
juz zikr-e-yar aur kahani nahin pasand
sab qisse mujh ko hech hain aur qissa-khvan hai hech
nalan jo hain jahan men gham-e-ishq se tire
naqus un ko hech hai bang-e-azan hai hech
kya asl tegh ki tire abru ke samne
tir-e-mizha ke samne nok-e-sinan hai hech
hain band ankhen ‘barq’ ki dil men hai teri yaad
kya dekhe sar utha ke use sab jahan hai hech
