ye shohrat hai ki ruswai magar had se ziyaada hai

ye shohrat hai ki rusvā.ī magar had se ziyāda hai

maiñ ḳhud itnā nahīñ saaya mire qad se ziyāda hai

mire dil kī girah bāteñ banāne se nahīñ khultī

ki mujh meñ bastagī kuchh qufl-e-abjad se ziyāda hai

kisī ke paas harf-e-dil-nashīñ baaqī nahīñ varna

qubūl ab bhī diloñ kī ḳhaak meñ rad se ziyāda hai

suvaidā ko mire nisbat bahut hai sañg-e-asvad se

magar naqsh-e-kaf-e-pā-e-mohammad se ziyāda hai

ye jān-e-nā-tavāñ merī ye shauq-e-be-amāñ merā

tavānā.ī kaf-e-sailāb meñ sad se ziyāda hai

ye shohrat hai ki ruswai magar had se ziyaada hai

main KHud itna nahin saya mere qad se ziyaada hai

mere dil ki girah baaten banane se nahin khulti

ki mujh mein bastagi kuchh qufl-e-abjad se ziyaada hai

kisi ke pas harf-e-dil-nashin baqi nahin warna

qubul ab bhi dilon ki KHak mein rad se ziyaada hai

suwaida ko mere nisbat bahut hai sang-e-aswad se

magar naqsh-e-kaf-e-pa-e-mohammad se ziyaada hai

ye jaan-e-na-tawan meri ye shauq-e-be-aman mera

tawanai kaf-e-sailab mein sad se ziyaada hai
