Sham ki dastak pe dhup ki syahi si chhai hai,
Dil ki kisi kone mein aaj bhi teri parchhai hai,
Tere liye jo piroye the alfaz kayi humne,
Teri khushbu se aaj vo saaz ban aayi hai.
Ye teri ankhon se nikla hai vo anshu hai ya moti hai,
Nigahon mein jo mai bhar loon to phir vo surmayi syahi hai,
Surkh ankhon mein chhae hai, nigahein yaad mein tere tarasti,
Chehre pe tabassum hai, saaz teri tarannum ban aayi hai.
