ba chashm-e-dil didar kun dil mein tere dildar hai

bā chashm-e-dil dīdār kun dil meñ tere dildār hai

az daana paidā mī-shavad kyā barg kyā gul-o-ḳhār hai

dar bahr-o-bar hargiz majo ai be-ḳhabar us yaar ko

in kunto kanzan maḳhfiyan kahtā tujhe sattār hai

dar ḳhud ḳhudā rā dīda-am zevar meñ zar ko pā liyā

dar ḳhud-sarī uftādae lohā jo hai talvār hai

ze-nahnu-aqrab dostāñ nazdīk-e-shah-rag pāoge

āñ-ki yaabī nafs-e-ḳhud irfāñ meñ aur kyā baar hai

az fikr-e-duniyā rasta-am jab dīn-e-haq kī chaah lagī

dastam bahar kirdār shud dil meñ vahī dildār hai

iiñ hama maulāst ai dil aur digar faanī samajh

dar tanābe vahm gashta kis ne dekhā maar hai

'ārifā' bā-ma.arifat chāhe jo tū vo kaam kar

'kishn-siñgh' parhez sāzad mard jo bīmār hai

ba chashm-e-dil didar kun dil mein tere dildar hai

az dana paida mi-shawad kya barg kya gul-o-KHar hai

dar bahr-o-bar hargiz majo ai be-KHabar us yar ko

in kunto kanzan maKHfiyan kahta tujhe sattar hai

dar KHud KHuda ra dida-am zewar mein zar ko pa liya

dar KHud-sari uftadae loha jo hai talwar hai

ze-nahnu-aqrab dostan nazdik-e-shah-rag paoge

aan-ki yabi nafs-e-KHud irfan mein aur kya bar hai

az fikr-e-duniya rasta-am jab din-e-haq ki chah lagi

dastam bahar kirdar shud dil mein wahi dildar hai

in hama maulast ai dil aur digar fani samajh

dar tanabe wahm gashta kis ne dekha mar hai

'arifa' ba-marifat chahe jo tu wo kaam kar

'kishn-singh' parhez sazad mard jo bimar hai
