nam badnam hai nahaq shab-e-tanhai ka

mar kar mariz-e-gham ki wo haalat nahin rahi

kyun na nairang-e-junun par koi qurban ho jae

wo kahte hain ki hai TuTe hue dil par karam mera

kuchh kam to hua ranj-e-farawan-e-tamanna

aankh uThai hi thi ki khai choT

jine ki hai ummid na marne ka yaqin hai

ai ajal ai jaan-e-fani tu ne ye kya kar diya

aap se sharh-e-arzu to karen

wahime ki ye mashq-e-paiham kya

har sans ke sath ja raha hun

dair mein ya haram mein guzregi

wa-e-nadani ye hasrat thi ki hota dar khula

wo puchhte hain hijr mein hai iztirab kya

wo ji gaya jo ishq mein ji se guzar gaya
