us se kya chhup sake banai baat
sharab pi jaan tan mein aai alam se tha dil kabab kaisa
kisi ki jubba-sai se kabhi ghista nahin patthar
hai aaTh pahar tu jalwa-numa timsal-e-nazar hai partaw-e-ruKH
koi baat aisi aaj ai meri gul-ruKHsar ban jae
qata hota rahe is tarah bayan-e-waiz
rona in ka kaam hai har dam jal jal kar mar jaana bhi
aql par patthar paDe ulfat mein diwana hua
fariyaad bhi main kar na saka be-KHabari se
hai nau-jawani mein zoaf-e-piri badan mein rasha kamar mein KHam hai
shab ko nala jo mera ta-ba-falak jata hai
wo yun shakl-e-tarz-e-bayan khinchte hain
mehr-o-ulfat se maal-e-tahzib
gulon ka daur hai bulbul maze bahaar mein luT
dekh lo tum KHu-e-atish ai qamar shishe mein hai
