mohabbat ka junun baqi nahin hai
musalmanon mein khun baqi nahin hai

safen kaj, dil pareshan, sajda bezuk
k jazba-e-andrun baqi nahin hai

ragon mein lahu baqi nahin hai
wo dil, wo awaz baqi nahin hai

namaz-o-roza-o-qurbani-o-haj
ye sab baqi hai tu baqi nahin hai

sach kah dun ai brahman gar tu bura na mane
tere sanam kadon k but ho gaye purane

apnon se bair rakhna tu ne buton se sikha
jang-o-jadal sikhaya waiz ko bhi Khuda ne

tang ake akhir main ne dair-o-haram ko chora
waiz ka waz chora, chore tere fasane

patthar ki muraton mein samjha hai tu Khuda hai
khak-e-watan ka mujh ko har zarra dewata hai

a gairat k parde ik bar phir utha dein
bichron ko phir mila dein naqsh-e-dui mita den

suni pari hui hai muddat se dil ki basti
a ik naya shiwala is des mein bana den

dunya k tirathon se uncha ho apna tirath
daman-e-asman se is ka kalas mila dein

har subah mil k gayen mantar wo mihe mihe
sare pujariyon ko mai pit ki pila dein

shakti bhi shanti bhi bhakton k git mein hai
dharti k basiyon ki mukti prit mein hai

khird k pas khabar k siwa kuch aur nahin
tera ilaj nazar k siwa kuch aur nahin

har muqam se age muqam hai tera
hayat zauq-e-safar k siwa kuch aur nahin

rangon mein gardish-e-khun hai agar to kya hasil
hayat soz-e-jigar k siwa kuch aur nahin

urus-e-lala munasib nahin hai mujhse hijab
k main nasim-e-sahar k siwa kuch aur nahin

jise qasad samajhte hain tajran-e-firang
wo shay mata-e-hunar k siwa kcuh aur nahin

giranbaha hai to hifz-e-khudi se hai warna
gauhar mein ab-e-gauhar k siwa kuch aur nahin

sitaron se age jahan aur bhi hain
abhi ishq k imtihan aur bhi hain

tahi zindagi se nahin ye fazayen
yahan saikaron karawan aur bhi hain

kanat na kar alam-e-rang-o-bu par
chaman aur bhi, ashiyan aur bhi hain

agar kho gaya ek nasheman to kya gam
maqamat-e-ah-o-fugan aur bhi hain

tu shahin hai parwaz hai kam tera
tere samne asman aur bhi hain

isi roz-o-shab mein ulajh kar na rah ja
k tere zamin-o-makan aur bhi hain

gae din k tanha tha main anjuman mein
yahan ab mere razadan aur bhi hain
