daulat nahin kaam aati jo taqdir buri ho

chhup saka dam bhar na raaz-e-dil firaq-e-yar mein

josh-e-wahshat yahi kahta hai nihayat kam hai

baad-e-fana bhi hai maraz-e-ishq ka asar

hamare aib ne be-aib kar diya hum ko

puchha agar kisi ne mera aa ke haal-e-dil

be-bulae hue jaana mujhe manzur nahin

gaya shabab na paigham-e-wasl-e-yar aaya

na sikandar hai na dara hai na qaisar hai na jam

KHud-faroshi ko jo tu nikle ba-shakl-e-yusuf

agar hayat hai dekhenge ek din didar

angDai donon hath uTha kar jo usne li

itna to jazb-e-ishq ne bare asar kiya

ai sanam wasl ki tadbiron se kya hota hai

asar zulf ka barmala ho gaya
