Kya Hain Shaida-e-qadd-e-yar DaraKHt

kya hain shaida-e-qadd-e-yar daraKHt

hain jo shabnam se ashk-bar daraKHt

dekhen gar sarw-qad-e-yar daraKHt

KHak par loTen saya-dar daraKHt

ashk-bar un pe hain jo murgh-e-chaman

pahne hain motiyon ka haar daraKHt

sar-kashi ki hai kya tere qad se

kaTe jate hain be-shumar daraKHt

kya tere qad se dun misal use

ki hai angusht zinhaar daraKHt

tere jalwe se naKHl-e-tur bane

hain jo baala-e-kohsar daraKHt

bed-e-majnun ko dekh o laila

hai ye majnun ka yaadgar daraKHt

dekh kar tujh ko bhul jaenge

gul khilaenge be-bahaar daraKHt

zindagi mein na main ne phal paya

ho na mere sar-e-mazar daraKHt

faeda bhi yahan to nuqsan hai

sang khate hain bar-dar daraKHt

dagh-e-tan khil rahe hain surat-e-gul

hum hain goya shagufa-dar daraKHt
