qasam nibah ki khai thi umr bhar ke liye

meri sharab ki tauba pe ja na ai waiz

jo kabe se nikle jagah dair mein ki

tandurusti se to behtar thi meri bimari

hum na uThte hain na wo dete hain

zahid ko raT lagi hai sharab-e-tuhur ki

pi kar do ghunT dekh zahid

qaid mein itna zamana ho gaya

shab-e-visal lagaya jo un ko sine se

gaya jo hath se wo waqt phir nahin aata

sach hai is ek parde mein chhupte hain lakh aib

aKHir waqt hai kis munh se jaun masjid ko

hamein yaad rakhna hamein yaad karna

pari thi koi chhalawa thi ya jawani thi

aap hi se na jab raha matlab
