It is a sufi couplet by Hazrat Shah Niaz, in Arabic script.
Yaar ko hamne jaa ba jaa dekha
Kahin zahir kahin chhupa dekha
I see my beloved everywhere
Sometimes obvious, sometimes hidden

The ghazal is part of Raqs-e-Bismil , [Dance of the Wounded], a beautiful collection of sufi ghazals, sung by Begum Abida Parveen and composed by Muzaffar Ali. Somebody finally uploaded the whole ghazal on youtube.
