'asġhar' harīm-e-ishq meñ hastī hī jurm hai

rakhnā kabhī na paañv yahāñ sar liye hue

'asghar' harim-e-ishq mein hasti hi jurm hai

rakhna kabhi na panw yahan sar liye hue

chhuT jaa.e agar dāman-e-kaunain to kyā ġham

lekin na chhuTe haath se dāmān-e-mohammad

chhuT jae agar daman-e-kaunain to kya gham

lekin na chhuTe hath se daman-e-mohammad

ishvoñ kī hai na us nigah-e-fitna-zā kī hai

saarī ḳhatā mire dil-e-shorish-adā kī hai

ishwon ki hai na us nigah-e-fitna-za ki hai

sari KHata mere dil-e-shorish-ada ki hai

qahr hai thoḌī sī bhī ġhaflat tarīq-e-ishq meñ

aañkh jhapkī qais kī aur sāmne mahmil na thā

qahr hai thoDi si bhi ghaflat tariq-e-ishq mein

aankh jhapki qais ki aur samne mahmil na tha

sau baar tirā dāman hāthoñ meñ mire aayā

jab aañkh khulī dekhā apnā hī garebāñ thā

sau bar tera daman hathon mein mere aaya

jab aankh khuli dekha apna hi gareban tha
