maddaah huu.n janaab-e-risaalat panaah kaa

'arsh-e-barii.n pe gosha hai merii kulaah kaa

mahfil me.n merii naGma-saraa.ii se shor hai

har samt aah aah kaa aur vaah vaah kaa

zebaa hai fakHr-o-naaz mujhe jis qadar karuu.n

dekhuu.n to mad.h-KHvaa.n huu.n mai.n kis baadshaah kaa

dariyaa-e-faiz-o-juud hai vo jiske saamne

tinke se kam hai koh bhii gar ho gunaah kaa

us jaayaa 'uzr-KHvaahii hamaarii karegaa vo

jis jaa pe zahraa-aab ho har 'uzr-KHvaah kaa

paiGambaro.n ko fakHr hu.aa us kii zaat se

sardaar hii se ba.Dhtaa hai rutba sipaah kaa

sarsabz kyaa ho.n us ruKH-e-zebaa ke ruu-ba-ruu

mu.nh kyaa hai sham'-e-bazm kaa yaa mehr-o-maah kaa

shabnam kii kyaa majaal jo gul-gasht kar sake

jis gulistaa.n me.n paa.nv na Thahre nigaah kaa

aashiq ke dil se aah nikaltii hai isliye

us ke sivaa maqaam nahii.n dil me.n aah kaa

kaalak to mere mu.nh kii chhaTe ab kisii tarah

hove guzar madiine me.n mujh ruu-siyaah kaa

dar-pesh hai 'adam kaa safar sab ko dosto

jo naa't kaa kalaam hai tosha hai raah kaa

paiGambaro.n kaa shaahid-e-'aadil hai vo 'shahiid'

kyaa martaba hai naam-e-KHudaa us gavaah kaa
