ayaañ 'alīm' se hai jism-o-jān kā ilhāq

makīñ makāñ meñ na hotā to lā-makāñ hotā

ayan 'alim' se hai jism-o-jaan ka ilhaq

makin makan mein na hota to la-makan hota

ham gadā-e-dar-e-mai-ḳhāna haiñ ai pīr-e-muġhāñ

kaam apnā tire sadqe meñ chalā lete haiñ

hum gada-e-dar-e-mai-KHana hain ai pir-e-mughan

kaam apna tere sadqe mein chala lete hain

kyā shauq kā aalam thā ki hāthoñ se uḌā ḳhat

dil thaam ke us shoḳh ko likhne jo lagā ḳhat

kya shauq ka aalam tha ki hathon se uDa KHat

dil tham ke us shoKH ko likhne jo laga KHat

naqsh-e-qadam haiñ raah meñ farhād-o-qais ke

ai ishq khīñch kar mujhe laayā idhar kahāñ

naqsh-e-qadam hain rah mein farhad-o-qais ke

ai ishq khinch kar mujhe laya idhar kahan

pābandī-e-ahkām-e-sharī.at hai vahāñ farz

rindoñ ko ruḳh-e-sāqī-o-sāġhar hue maḳhsūs

pabandi-e-ahkaam-e-shariat hai wahan farz

rindon ko ruKH-e-saqi-o-saghar hue maKHsus
