maza jab hai use barq-e-tajalla dekhne wale

mazā jab hai use barq-e-tajallā dekhne vaale

jamāl-e-yār meñ tahlīl ho jā dekhne vaale

nazar aatī tujhe har ḳhaak ke zarre meñ ik duniyā

nigāh-e-ġhaur se tū ne na dekhā dekhne vaale

tujhe nazdīk se bhī ek din vo dekh hī leñge

tasavvur meñ tirā husn-e-dil-ārā dekhne vaale

ḳhabar bhī hai tujhe kuchh ye tamāsha-gāh-e-ālam hai

tamāsha ḳhud na ban jaanā tamāsha dekhne vaale

harīm-e-tūr kā 'sīmāb' jab uThne lagā parda

nidā ye ġhaib se aa.ī sambhal jā dekhne vaale

maza jab hai use barq-e-tajalla dekhne wale

jamal-e-yar mein tahlil ho ja dekhne wale

nazar aati tujhe har KHak ke zarre mein ek duniya

nigah-e-ghaur se tu ne na dekha dekhne wale

tujhe nazdik se bhi ek din wo dekh hi lenge

tasawwur mein tera husn-e-dil-ara dekhne wale

KHabar bhi hai tujhe kuchh ye tamasha-gah-e-alam hai

tamasha KHud na ban jaana tamasha dekhne wale

harim-e-tur ka 'simab' jab uThne laga parda

nida ye ghaib se aai sambhal ja dekhne wale
