shikast-o-fat.h-e-muqābil se be-niyāz to hai
ba-faiz-e-dār-o-rasan ishq sarfarāz to hai

usī se nikleñge naġhmāt-e-zindagī-parvar
shikasta hī vo sahī dil bhī ek saaz to hai

hazār qismat-o-mahaul zimmedār sahī
mirī tabāhī se un kā bhī sāz-bāz to hai

ġhurūr-e-husn salāmat magar ye kyā kam hai
hamārā dil bhī harīf-e-nigāh-e-nāz to hai

huā hai faash jahāñ par zabāñ pe aa.e baġhair
dil-o-nigāh ke mābain koī raaz to hai

atā-e-bāda ke inkār se ye bhed khulā
ki mai-kashoñ meñ tire paas imtiyāz to hai

mujhe talāsh-e-masarrat kī kyā zarūrat hai
ḳhushī ye kam nahīñ dil merā ġham-navāz to hai

nahīñ 'sa.īd' mire paas shaukat-e-alfāz
mirī ġhazal meñ magar qalb kā gudāz to hai

shikast-o-fath-e-muqabil se be-niyaz to hai
ba-faiz-e-dar-o-rasan ishq sarfaraaz to hai

usi se niklenge naghmat-e-zindagi-parwar
shikasta hi wo sahi dil bhi ek saz to hai

hazar qismat-o-mahaul zimmedar sahi
meri tabahi se un ka bhi saz-baz to hai

ghurur-e-husn salamat magar ye kya kam hai
hamara dil bhi harif-e-nigah-e-naz to hai

hua hai fash jahan par zaban pe aae baghair
dil-o-nigah ke mabain koi raaz to hai

ata-e-baada ke inkar se ye bhed khula
ki mai-kashon mein tere pas imtiyaz to hai

mujhe talash-e-masarrat ki kya zarurat hai
KHushi ye kam nahin dil mera gham-nawaz to hai

nahin 'said' mere pas shaukat-e-alfaz
meri ghazal mein magar qalb ka gudaz to hai
