Barbaad husn-e-zan se maal-e-wafaa na ho !
Aisa na ho ke haqq-e-muhabbat ataa na ho !
Hoon aashna-e-dost, mujhe kyun ataa na ho ?
Aisi jabeen jo dair-o-haram se aashnaa na ho !
Phir chaahta hoon raabta husn-o-ishq se,
Wo ibtada ke jis ki koi intehaa na ho !
Wo sar-khushi ka waqt hai jab kaayenaat mein,
Dil bolta ho aur aur koi boltaa na ho !
Rahne de imtiyaaz ke parde pade huye,
Aye husn ! har naqaab se jalwanumaa na ho !
Mahw-e-khudi na ho jo wo kaafir to kya kare,
Jis ki nazar mein hadd-e-khudi tak Khuda na ho !
'Seemab' tark-e-ishq-o-gham-e-zindagi galat,
Wo kaam kyun karein jise dil maantaa na ho !
