jawani yaad hum ko apni phir be-iKHtiyar aai

yahi kahti laili-e-soKHta-jaan nahin khati adab se KHuda ki qasam

hue aazim-e-mulk-e-adam jo hawas to KHushi ye hui thi ki gham se chhuTe

main kaha bolna shab ghair se tha tumko kya

main na samjha bulbul be-baal-o-par ne kya kaha

kya din the jab chhup chhup kar tum pas hamare aate the

humse warafta ulfat hain bahut kam paida

na paya khoj barson naqsh-e-pa-e-raftagan DhunDhe

hargiz na mere mahram-e-hamraaz hue tum

muzhda ye saba us but-e-be-bak ko pahuncha

rang-e-gul-e-shagufta hun aab-e-ruKH-e-chaman hun main

shauq-e-KHarash-e-Khaar mere dil mein rah gaya

kya maza ho jo kisi se tujhe ulfat ho jae

dekhen kya ab ke asiri hamein dikhlati hai

tu jo paDa phirta hai aaj kahin kal kahin
