chuTkiyaa.n letii hai dil me.n har gha.Dii yaad-e-rasuul

ban ga.ii hai ab to merii zindagii yaad-e-rasuul

daf'atan ye dil misaal-e-Guncha-o-gul khil uThaa

jab vufuur-e-yaas-o-Gam me.n aa ga.ii yaad-e-rasuul

bazm-e-she’r-o-naGma thii yaa takHta-e-daar-o-rasan

ham ko har ik haal me.n aatii rahii yaad-e-rasuul

kal bhii ye chhaa.ii hu.ii thii jaan-o-dil par sar-ba-sar

aur rag rag me.n basii hai aaj bhii yaad-e-rasuul

kyaa kahuu.n mai.n ab kisii se mudda’aa-e-zindagii

jab mirii hastii kaa haasil ban ga.ii yaad-e-rasuul

is se pahle bazm-e-hastii kyaa thii ik zulmat-kada

de ga.ii hai sham'-e-dil ko raushnii yaad-e-rasuul

puuchhte phirte hai.n ham duniyaa se ab apnaa pata

zindagii par is tarah kuchh chhaa ga.ii yaad-e-rasuul

baar-e-Gam se jab hu.aa mai.n maa.il-e-fariyaad 'arsh'

mere dil ko de ga.ii taskiin sii yaad-e-rasuul
