dagh-e-firaq-e-sohbat-e-shab ki jali hui

dil hi to hai na sang-o-KHisht dard se bhar na aae kyun

sambhalne de mujhe ai na-umidi kya qayamat hai

bahra hun main to chahiye duna ho iltifat

garche hai tarz-e-taghaful parda-dar-e-raaz-e-ishq

hain aur bhi duniya mein suKHan-war bahut achchhe

tha zindagi mein marg ka khaTka laga hua

apna nahin ye shewa ki aaram se baiThen

zikr us pari-wash ka aur phir bayan apna

sohbat mein ghair ki na paDi ho kahin ye KHu

pi jis qadar mile shab-e-mahtab mein sharab

ada-e-KHas se ghaalib hua hai nukta-sara

tangi-e-dil ka gila kya ye wo kafir-dil hai

aagahi dam-e-shunidan jis qadar chahe bichhae

hai par-e-sarhad-e-idrak se apna masjud
