boliye karta hun minnat aap ki

boliye kartā huuñ minnat aap kī

kyuuñ mukaddar hai tabī'at aap kī

phūñke detī hai kalejā siine meñ

sho'la ban ban kar mohabbat aap kī

itnī be-parvā.iyāñ achchhī nahīñ

log karte haiñ shikāyat aap kī

chāñdnī muñh par na paḌne dījiye

mailī ho jā.egī rangat aap kī

ek dil rakhte the vo bhī kho chuke

ho ga.e muflis badaulat aap kī

daaġh ham ko ḳhaal sāhab ko milā

ye nasīb apnā vo qismat aap kī

mar ke phir zinda hue samjheñge ham

jhel jā.eñge jo furqat aap kī

muñh lagā kar phir na hargiz pūchhnā

vaah kyā achchhī hai 'ādat aap kī

hūreñ jannat se to pariyāñ qaaf se

dekhne aatī haiñ sūrat aap kī

merī sūrat se agar nafrat nahīñ

kyuuñ badal jaatī hai rangat aap kī

ek bose par hazāroñ hujjateñ

māniye kyuuñ kar saḳhāvat aap kī

sun ke matlab saaf āñkheñ pher liiñ

dekh lī ham ne muravvat aap kī

phuul kī jā pankhuḌī ai bāġh-e-husn

dāġh-e-dil par hai ‘ināyat aap kī

har kisī ke sāmne rote ho 'bahr'

bah ga.ī āñkhoñ se ġhairat aap kī

boliye karta hun minnat aap ki

kyun mukaddar hai tabi'at aap ki

phunke deti hai kaleja sine mein

sho'la ban ban kar mohabbat aap ki

itni be-parwaiyan achchhi nahin

log karte hain shikayat aap ki

chandni munh par na paDne dijiye

maili ho jaegi rangat aap ki

ek dil rakhte the wo bhi kho chuke

ho gae muflis badaulat aap ki

dagh hum ko KHal sahab ko mila

ye nasib apna wo qismat aap ki

mar ke phir zinda hue samjhenge hum

jhel jaenge jo furqat aap ki

munh laga kar phir na hargiz puchhna

wah kya achchhi hai 'adat aap ki

huren jannat se to pariyan qaf se

dekhne aati hain surat aap ki

meri surat se agar nafrat nahin

kyun badal jati hai rangat aap ki

ek bose par hazaron hujjaten

maniye kyun kar saKHawat aap ki

sun ke matlab saf aankhen pher lin

dekh li hum ne murawwat aap ki

phul ki ja pankhuDi ai bagh-e-husn

dagh-e-dil par hai ‘inayat aap ki

har kisi ke samne rote ho 'bahr'

bah gai aankhon se ghairat aap ki
