kaba-o-dair ek samajhte hain rind-e-pak
baad marne ke Thikane lag gai miTTi meri
mujh sa aashiq aap sa mashuq tab howe nasib
umid hai hamein farda ho ya pas-e-farda
hote hote na hua misra-e-rangin mauzun
bosa jo manga bazm mein farmaya yar ne
yun intizar-e-yar mein hum umr bhar rahe
tarik-e-duniya hai jab se muntahi
chalega tir jab apni dua ka
asir kar ke hamein hukm de gaya sayyaad
tohmat-e-jurm-o-KHata hirs-o-hawa ghaflat-e-dil
sada-e-qulqul-e-mina mujhe nahin aati
na band kar ise fasl-e-bahaar mein saqi
baal khole nahin phirta hai agar wo saffak
jise zauq-e-baada-parasti nahin hai
