وہ حرف راز کہ مجھ کو سکھا گیا ہے جنوں

Wo harf-e-raaz ki mujhe sikha gaya hai junoon

Khuda mujhe nafs-e-Jibra'il de to kahoon

Sitara kya meri taqdeer ki khabar dega

Wo khud farakhee-e-aflaq mein hai khwaar o zuboon

Hayaat kya hai khayaal o nazar ki majzoobi

Khudi ki maut hai andesha-haa-e-goona-goon

Ajab mazaa hai mujhe lazzat-e-khudi de kar

Wo chahte hain ki main apne aap mein na rahoon

Zameer-e-pak o nigah-e-buland o masti-e-shauq

Na maal-o-daulat-e-Qaroon, na fikr-e-aflatun

Sabq mila hai ye Miraj-e-Mustafa se mujhe

Ki aalam-e-bashriyat ki zad mein hai gardoon

Ye kaainaat abhi na-tamaam hai shayad

Ki aa rahi hai damadam sada-e-kun-faykun

Ilaaj aatish-e-'Rumi' ke soz mein hai tera

Teri khird pe hai Ghalib firangiyon ka fusoon

Usi ke faiz se meri nigah hai raushan

Usi ke faiz se mere suboo mein hai jehun
