jinHeiN maiN DHoonDta tha AasmanoN meiN zaminoN meiN
woh nikle mere zulmat-e-dil ke makinoN meiN.
agar kuchH ashna hota mazaaq-e-jabba sa'ee se
to sang-e- Aastaan-e-ka’ba ja milta jabinoN meiN
kabHee apna bHee naZaara kya hai tu ne ae majnooN
ke laila kee tara tu hai maHmal nashinoN meiN
maheene waxal kee gHaRion ke surat uRte jaate haiN
magar gHaRiaN judaa’i kee guzartee haiN mahinon meiN
mujHe rokega tu ae naakhuda kya gharaq hone se
ke jin ko Doobna hai Doob jaate heiN safinoN meiN
jala saktee hai shama-e-kushta-e-maoj-e-nafas unkee
Illahee kya chHupa hota hai ahl-e-dil ke seenoN meiN
tamanna dard-e-dil kee ho to kar khidmat faqeerooN kee
naheeN milta yeh gohar baadshaahoN ke khazinoN meiN
na poochH In khurqa poshoN kee Iraadat ho to dekH Inko
yad-e-baizza la'e baitHe haiN Zaalim AastinoN meiN
mohabbat ke la'e dil DHoonD ko'ee TuTne waala
yeh woh ma'e hai jise rakHte haiN nazak AabginoN meiN
namaayaan ho ke dikHla de kabHee Inko jamaal apna
bahut muddat se charche haiN tere baareek binoN meiN
khaamosh ae dil bHaree maHfil meiN chillaana naheeN achHa
aadab pahla qareena hai mohabbat ke qarinoN meiN
bura samjHooN unheeN mujH se to aisa ho naheeN sakta
ke meiN khud bHee to hoaN Iqbal apne nuqta chinoN meiN
