Misaal e saayaa muhabbat mein jaal apnaa hoon

Misaal e saayaa muhabbat mein jaal apnaa hoon

tumhaare saath giraftaar e haal apnaa hoon

agarche nashaa hoon sab main kHum e jahaa.n mein lek,

barang e mai arqe infa'aal apnaa hoon

Miri numood ne mujhko kiyaa baraabar kHaak,

main naqsh e paa ki tarah paaymaal apnaa hoon

hui hai zindagi dushwaar mushkil aasaa.n kar,

phiroo.n chaloo.n to hoo.n par main wabaal apnaa hoon

tiraa hai wahm ke ye naatwaa.n hai jaame main,

wagarnaa main nahi.n ab ik khayaal apnaa hoon

balaa hui hai miri go ke tab'e raushan ''meer''

hoon aaftaab walekin zawaal apnaa hoon
