milā thā roz-e-azal zauq-e-kāmyāb mujhe
mirī nazar ne kiyā ḳhud hī intiḳhāb mujhe
na e'tibār mire zarf kā thā saaqī ko
kabhī na bhar ke diyā sāġhar-e-sharāb mujhe
havā-e-dahr se bikhrā hai dil kā shīrāza
varaq varaq nazar aatī hai ye kitāb mujhe
maiñ apnī ḳhāmī-e-tarz-e-bayāñ pe nādim huuñ
mirā savāl hī ḳhud ban gayā javāb mujhe
kiyā hai dīda-e-anjām maiñ ne āgah-e-rāz
bisāt-e-dahr 'munavvar' hai farsh-e-ḳhvāb mujhe
mila tha roz-e-azal zauq-e-kaamyab mujhe
meri nazar ne kiya KHud hi intiKHab mujhe
na e'tibar mere zarf ka tha saqi ko
kabhi na bhar ke diya saghar-e-sharab mujhe
hawa-e-dahr se bikhra hai dil ka shiraaza
waraq waraq nazar aati hai ye kitab mujhe
main apni KHami-e-tarz-e-bayan pe nadim hun
mera sawal hi KHud ban gaya jawab mujhe
kiya hai dida-e-anjam main ne aagah-e-raaz
bisat-e-dahr 'munawwar' hai farsh-e-KHwab mujhe
