husn ka ek aah ne chehra niDhaal kar diya

husn kā ek aah ne chehrā niDhāl kar diyā

aaj to ai dil-e-hazīñ tū ne kamāl kar diyā

sahtā rahā jafā-e-dost kahtā rahā adā-e-dost

mere ḳhulūs ne mirā jiinā muhāl kar diyā

mai-kade meñ hai qaht-e-mai yā koī aur baat hai

pīr-e-muġhāñ ne kyuuñ mujhe jaam sambhāl kar diyā

jitne chaman-parast the sāya-e-gul meñ mast the

apnā urūj-e-gulistāñ nazr-e-zavāl kar diyā

ḳhud mirā soz-e-jāñ-gudāz chheḌ sakā na dil kā saaz

aap kī ik nigāh ne sāhab-e-hāl kar diyā

bazm meñ saare ahl-e-hosh un ke sitam pe the ḳhamosh

ek junūñ-parast ne uTh ke savāl kar diyā

lutf-e-firāq-e-yār ne lazzat-e-intizār ne

duur dil o nigāh se shauq-e-visāl kar diyā

sun ke bayān-e-mai-kadā dekh ke shān-e-mai-kadā

shaiḳh-e-haram ne bhī 'fanā' mai ko halāl kar diyā

husn ka ek aah ne chehra niDhaal kar diya

aaj to ai dil-e-hazin tu ne kamal kar diya

sahta raha jafa-e-dost kahta raha ada-e-dost

mere KHulus ne mera jina muhaal kar diya

mai-kade mein hai qaht-e-mai ya koi aur baat hai

pir-e-mughan ne kyun mujhe jam sambhaal kar diya

jitne chaman-parast the saya-e-gul mein mast the

apna uruj-e-gulistan nazr-e-zawal kar diya

KHud mera soz-e-jaan-gudaz chheD saka na dil ka saz

aap ki ek nigah ne sahab-e-haal kar diya

bazm mein sare ahl-e-hosh un ke sitam pe the KHamosh

ek junun-parast ne uTh ke sawal kar diya

lutf-e-firaq-e-yar ne lazzat-e-intizar ne

dur dil o nigah se shauq-e-visal kar diya

sun ke bayan-e-mai-kada dekh ke shan-e-mai-kada

shaiKH-e-haram ne bhi 'fana' mai ko halal kar diya
