shoKHi shabab husn tabassum haya ke sath

in shoKH hasinon ki nirali hai ada bhi

marna to lazim hai ek din ji bhar ke ab ji to lun

uTha surahi ye shisha wo jam le saqi

zindagi maut ban gai hoti jaan se hum guzar gae hote

ishq o mohabbat kya hote hain kya samjhaun waiz ko

har lamha mangte hain dua did-e-yar ki

phir is ke baad hamein tishnagi rahe na rahe

mere sawal-e-visal par tum nazar jhuka kar khaDe hue ho

kisi ik-adh mai-kash se KHata kuchh ho gai hogi

saqi mai saghar paimana mere bas ki baat nahin

gham-e-sud-o-ziyan se be-niyazana nikalta hai

aaen hain samjhane log

muskurana kabhi na ras aaya
