pyaasaa shahiid jo hu.aa ummat ke vaaste

vo duKHtar-e-rasuul kaa dil hai jigar bhii hai

akbar kaa husn dekh ke kahte the ahl-e-shaam

sharminda us ke saamne shams-o-qamar bhii hai

mai.n to gunaahgaar huu.n par hai KHudaa kariim

baKHshish kii go umiid hai lekin KHatar bhii hai

iksiir se sivaa na ho kyuu.n KHaak-e-karbalaa

chashm-e-gunahgaar ko kohal-ul-basar bhii hai

kyaa puuchhte ho naam mere dastgiir kaa

dast-e-KHudaa bhii baazuu-e-kHair-ul-bashar bhii hai

la.ngar hai 'aasiyo.n kaa safiina najaat kaa

aur naa-KHudaa-e-ummat-e-kHair-ul-bashar bhii hai

laakho.n kaa saamnaa kiyaa do-din kii pyaas me.n

kyuu.n kar na ho ki sher-e-KHudaa kaa pisar bhii hai

kyaa ko.ii vasf-e-ahmad-e-mursal bayaa.n kare

sardaar-e-ambiyaa bhii hai KHair-ul-bashar bhii hai

allaah re aab-o-taab hussaam abuu-turaab

qabza me.n us ke maut bhii fat.h-o-zafar bhii hai

dil me.n vilaa-e-panjtan-e-paak hai agar

rahmat bhii phir du'aa ye hai 'aashiq asar bhii hai

Gaflat kii nii.nd so chuke ab to uTho ‘maliih’
