nigah-e-mehr kahan ki wo barhami bhi gai

miT chuke jo bhi the tauba-shikani ke asbab

aaj bhi hai wahi maqam aaj bhi lab pe un ka nam

naKHuda Dubne walon ki taraf muD ke na dekh

nigah-e-shauq se lakhon bana Dale hain dar humne

nazar se dekh to saqi ek aaina banaya hai

khinch bhi lijiye achchha to hai taswir-e-junun

manzil na mili kashmakash-e-ahl-e-nazar mein

mahw yun ho gae alfaz-e-dua waqt-e-dua

jo teri bazm se uTTha wo is tarah uTTha

dhuan deta hai daman-e-mohabbat

sahil pe qaid lakhon safinon ke waste

zindan mein aachanak hai ye kya shor-e-salasil

mai-KHana-e-hasti mein saqi hum donon hi mujrim hain shayad

kahi kisi se na rudad-e-zindagi maine
