baiTha hun sar-e-rah tamasha-e-rawan hai
baiThā huuñ sar-e-rāh tamāshā-e-ravāñ hai
simTā huā piirī kī nigāhoñ meñ jahāñ hai
paayā tujhe jis ne tujhe har chiiz meñ paayā
paane kī yahī ek dalīl ek nishāñ hai
har vus.at-e-kaunain hai ik aañkh ke til meñ
ik harf meñ kun ke baham asbāb-e-fakāñ hai
ishrāk meñ aġhrāq meñ haiñ ān-o-davām ek
hai munjamid ik bahr to ik sarv ravāñ hai
urdu-e-muallā jise kahtā hai zamāna
vo virsa-e-aslāf hai vo merī zabāñ hai
us shaḳhs kī muTThī meñ hai sad-nau-e-karāmāt
'dīvāna' ki hai ḳhanda-jabīñ azb-e-bayāñ hai
baiTha hun sar-e-rah tamasha-e-rawan hai
simTa hua piri ki nigahon mein jahan hai
paya tujhe jis ne tujhe har chiz mein paya
pane ki yahi ek dalil ek nishan hai
har wusat-e-kaunain hai ek aankh ke til mein
ek harf mein kun ke baham asbab-e-fakan hai
ishrak mein aghraq mein hain aan-o-dawam ek
hai munjamid ek bahr to ek sarw rawan hai
urdu-e-mualla jise kahta hai zamana
wo wirsa-e-aslaf hai wo meri zaban hai
us shaKHs ki muTThi mein hai sad-nau-e-karamat
'diwana' ki hai KHanda-jabin azb-e-bayan hai
