shab-e-firaq hamara wo nim-jaan hona

suni to usne ghairon se hua go bad-guman humse

samne us but ke jab jaana paDa

ajal ne luT liya aa ke karwan-e-hayat

wahshat mein koi kar-e-numayan na kar sake

rakhi hai husn pe buniyaad-e-ashiqi maine

haram kahta hai kuchh dair-e-butan kuchh aur kahta hai

shishe mein hai sharab to shisha sharab mein

ye kis ke aastane ki zamin malum hoti hai

tere husn-e-nazar ka ye bhi ek eajaz hai saqi

sar ko chaha bhi uThana to uThaya na gaya

KHushi jaante hain na gham jaante hain
