bedard mujhse sharh-e-gham-e-zindagi na puchh

ashk-e-gham uqda-kusha-e-KHalish-e-jaan nikla

ab wo piri mein kahan ahd-e-jawani ki umang

lutf-e-jafa isi mein hai yaad-e-jafa na aae phir

dil-e-sarshaar mera chashm-e-siyah-mast teri

wo puchhte hain dil-e-mubtala ka haal aur hum

gham-e-dil ab kisi ke bas ka nahin

tu hai bahaar to daman mera ho kyun Khaali

ab kyun gila rahega mujhe hijr-e-yar ka

mera wajud haqiqat mera adam dhoka

ghazab hai ye ehsas warastagi ka

uThne ko to uTha hun mahfil se teri lekin

usne is andaz se dekha mujhe

tum aziz aur tumhaara gham bhi aziz
