Dil ko lagtii hai dilrubaa kii adaa,
jii meN bastii hai Khush-adaa kii adaa,
garche sab Khuub-ruu haiN Khuub vale,
qatl kartii hai Mirzaa ki adaa,
harf-e-bejaa hai gar boluuN,
dushman-e-hosh hai piyaa kii adaa,
naqsh-e-diivaar kyuN na ho aashiq,
hairat-afzaa hai be-vafaa kii adaa,
gul hu’e garq-e-aab-e-shabnam meN,
dekh us saahib-e-hayaa kii adaa,
ai “Wali” dard-e-sar kii daaruu hai,
manjh-kuuN us sandalii qabaa kii adaa.
