a'jeeb kaif-o-sukooN teree justjoo meN th`aa

a'jeeb kaif-o-sukooN teree justjoo meN th`aa
gumaaN-naward maiN SeHraaYe aarzoo meN th`aa

nah shaa,i'ree meN, nah hee jaam-e-mushkboo meN th`aa
woh lut^f jo tire andaaz-e-guftgoo meN th`aa

ik u'mr maiN rahaa Sad fikr-e-laa-ilaah meN gum
magar a'yaaN too miree ek Z^arb-e-hoo meN th`aa

rahaa hameshah muHabbat kee aabroo ban kar
woh iZ^t^iraab jo meree rag-e-guloo meN th`aa

tire Khayaal ne kab furSat-e-naz^aarah dee
hazaar kehne ko dunyaa-e-raNg-o-boo meN th`aa

jahaaN meN kis ko milaa shauq-o-jaZbah-e-Mansoor
yeh iHtiraam-e-muHabbat kisoo kisoo meN th`aa

Khud apne aap se begaanah kar gayaa mujh` ko
suroor-o-kaif-e-Khudee jo tire suboo meN th`aa

namaaz-e-i'shq meN "Sarwar" kahaaN peh jaa poNhchaa
woh Ka'bah-roo th`aa, jahaaN manzil-e-wuZ^oo meN th`aa!
