zinda hun yun ki bas mein meri KHud-kushi nahin

agar gham tera gham hai to koi gham se riha kyun ho

yahan jaza-o-saza ka kuchh etibar nahin

gham mein har lab pe wahi aah-o-buka aati hai

ab baad-e-fana kis ko bataun ki main kya tha

haqiqat samne thi aur haqiqat se main ghafil tha

sach hai inko mujhse kya aur mere afsane se kya

isi ka nam hai diwana banna aur bana dena

kaun sa jadu hai yarab us nigah-e-naz mein

jo hum anjam par apni nazar ai baghban karte

ruswa ba-qadr-e-zauq-e-tamanna nahin hun main

dair mein hai wo na kabe mein na but-KHane mein hai

fareb-e-zauq ko har rang mein ayan dekha

ho rahzan ki hidayat ki rahbar ke fareb
