mata-e-be-baha hai dard-o-soz-e-arzumandi
matā-e-be-bahā hai dard-o-soz-e-ārzūmandī
maqām-e-bandagī de kar na luuñ shān-e-ḳhudāvandī
tire āzād bandoñ kī na ye duniyā na vo duniyā
yahāñ marne kī pābandī vahāñ jiine kī pābandī
hijāb iksīr hai āvāra-e-kū-e-mohabbat ko
mirī ātish ko bhaḌkātī hai terī der-paivandī
guzar-auqāt kar letā hai ye koh o bayābāñ meñ
ki shāhīñ ke liye zillat hai kār-e-āshiyāñ-bandī
ye faizān-e-nazar thā yā ki maktab kī karāmat thī
sikhā.e kis ne ismā.īl ko ādāb-e-farzandī
ziyārat-gāh-e-ahl-e-azm-o-himmat hai lahad merī
ki ḳhāk-e-rāh ko maiñ ne batāyā rāz-e-alvandī
mirī mashshātgī kī kyā zarūrat husn-e-ma.anī ko
ki fitrat ḳhud-ba-ḳhud kartī hai laale kī hinā-bandī
mata-e-be-baha hai dard-o-soz-e-arzumandi
maqam-e-bandagi de kar na lun shan-e-KHudawandi
tere aazad bandon ki na ye duniya na wo duniya
yahan marne ki pabandi wahan jine ki pabandi
hijab iksir hai aawara-e-ku-e-mohabbat ko
meri aatish ko bhaDkati hai teri der-paiwandi
guzar-auqat kar leta hai ye koh o bayaban mein
ki shahin ke liye zillat hai kar-e-ashiyan-bandi
ye faizan-e-nazar tha ya ki maktab ki karamat thi
sikhae kis ne ismail ko aadab-e-farzandi
ziyarat-gah-e-ahl-e-azm-o-himmat hai lahad meri
ki KHak-e-rah ko main ne bataya raaz-e-alwandi
meri mashshatgi ki kya zarurat husn-e-mani ko
ki fitrat KHud-ba-KHud karti hai lale ki hina-bandi
