shah-e-be-ḳhudī ne atā kiyā mujhe ab libās-e-barahnagī — Siraj Aurangabadi

kaan meñ hai tere motī āb-dār
yā kisī āshiq kā aañsū bolnā

chalī samt-e-ġhaib siiñ kyā havā ki chaman zuhūr kā jal gayā
magar ek shāḳh-e-nihāl-e-ġham jise dil kaho so harī rahī

hamārī baat mohabbat siiñ tum jo gosh karo
to apnī prem kahānī tumheñ sunā.ūñgā

takiya-e-maḳhmalī sirhāne rakh
lekin āñkhoñ siiñ apnī ḳhvāb nikāl

vo āshiqī ke khet meñ sābit qadam huā
jo koī zaḳhm-e-ishq liyā dil kī Dhaal par

maktab-e-ishq kā moallim huuñ
kyuuñ na ho.e dars-e-yār kī takrār

Dil dhoondta hai phir wahi fursat-e-shab-o-roz
Naaz uthana, naaz uthana, naaz uthana

Khudi ko kar buland itna ke har taqdeer se pehle
Khuda bande se khud pooche, bata teri raza kya hai

maanā ki terī diid ke qābil nahīñ huuñ maiñ
tū merā shauq dekh mirā intizār dekh

yuuñ to qadam qadam pe hai dīvār sāmne
koī na ho to ḳhud se ulajh jaanā chāhiye

hamārā 'mīr'-jī se muttafiq honā hai nā-mumkin
uThānā hai jo patthar ishq kā to halkā bhārī kyā

yuuñ to ham the yūñhī kuchh misl-e-anār-o-mahtāb
jab hameñ aag dikhā.e to tamāshā niklā
