basan-e-barq wo jhamke dikhawe

basān-e-barq vo jhamke dikhāve

vale dil shart hai jo taab laave

uḌātā guDDī vo bāhar na aave

mabādā mujh ko bhī guDDā banāve

sabā se maiñ jo lag chal kar gayā vaañ

havā khāve kahā aane na paave

nazākat se bahut hai kam-dimāġhī

rakhe pagḌī pe gul tyorī chaḌhāve

bazan-gāh us kushinde kī galī hai

vahī jaave jo lohū meñ nahāve

na pūchho farsh-e-rah kyā hove us kā

jo ahl-e-dil ho to āñkheñ bichhāve

balā maġhrūr hai vo ātishīñ-ḳhū

bahut minnat karo to jī jalāve

paḌā taḌpā kiyā maiñ duur pahroñ

ajab kyā hai jo paas apne bulāve

butān-e-dair se aisī nahīñ laag

ḳhudā hī ho to ka.abe 'mīr' jaave

basan-e-barq wo jhamke dikhawe

wale dil shart hai jo tab lawe

uData guDDi wo bahar na aawe

mabaada mujh ko bhi guDDa banawe

saba se main jo lag chal kar gaya wan

hawa khawe kaha aane na pawe

nazakat se bahut hai kam-dimaghi

rakhe pagDi pe gul tyori chaDhawe

bazan-gah us kushinde ki gali hai

wahi jawe jo lohu mein nahawe

na puchho farsh-e-rah kya howe us ka

jo ahl-e-dil ho to aankhen bichhawe

bala maghrur hai wo aatishin-KHu

bahut minnat karo to ji jalawe

paDa taDpa kiya main dur pahron

ajab kya hai jo pas apne bulawe

butan-e-dair se aisi nahin lag

KHuda hi ho to kabe 'mir' jawe
