harim-e-kaba bana di wo sar-zamin maine
harīm-e-ka.aba banā dī vo sar-zamīñ maiñ ne
tire ḳhayāl meñ rakh dī jahāñ jabīñ maiñ ne
mujhī ko parda-e-hastī meñ de rahā hai fareb
vo husn jis ko kiyā jalva-āfrīñ maiñ ne
chaTak meñ ġhunche kī vo saut jāñ-fizā to nahii.
sunī hai pahle bhī āvāz ye kahīñ maiñ ne
rahīn-e-manzil-e-vahm-o-gumāñ rahā 'aḳhtar'
usī meñ DhūñDh liyā jādā-e-yaqīñ maiñ ne
harim-e-kaba bana di wo sar-zamin main ne
tere KHayal mein rakh di jahan jabin main ne
mujhi ko parda-e-hasti mein de raha hai fareb
wo husn jis ko kiya jalwa-afrin main ne
chaTak mein ghunche ki wo saut jaan-fiza to nahi
suni hai pahle bhi aawaz ye kahin main ne
rahin-e-manzil-e-wahm-o-guman raha 'aKHtar'
usi mein DhunDh liya jada-e-yaqin main ne
