gham-KHana-e-hasti mein hai mehman koi din aur

mujhe apni pasti ki sharm hai teri rifaton ka KHayal hai

kis ko dekha hai ye hua kya hai

yaad aao mujhe lillah na tum yaad karo

umr-bhar ki talKH bedari ka saman ho gain

nikhat-e-zulf se nindon ko basa de aa kar

ai dil wo aashiqi ke fasane kidhar gae

meri sham-e-gham ko wo bahla rahe hain

dil mein KHayal-e-nargis-e-jaanana aa gaya

main aarzu-e-jaan likhun ya jaan-e-arzu!

agar wo apne hasin chehre ko bhul kar be-naqab kar de

la pila saqi sharab-e-arghawani phir kahan

wada us mah-ru ke aane ka

zaman-e-hijr miTe daur-e-wasl-e-yar aae

hamare hath mein kab saghar-e-sharab nahin
