jab kaho kyun ho KHafa kya bais

maine kaha ki da۔awa-e-ulfat magar ghalat

aashiq-e-haq hain hamin shikwa-e-taqdir nahin

qazi ke munh pe mari hai botal sharab ki

kabhi KHun hoti hue aur kabhi jalte dekha

mohtaj nahin qafila aawaz-e-dara ka

wahi gul hai gulistan mein wahi hai shama mahfil mein

bar-sar-e-lutf aaj chashm-e-dil-ruba thi main na tha

thi aasman pe meri chaDhai tamam raat

le ke apni zulf ko wo pyare pyare hath mein

apna apna rang dikhlati hain jaani chuDiyan

hum ko hawas-e-jalwa-gah-e-tur nahin hai

hai aaina-KHane mein tera zauq-faza raqs

humne sau sau tarah banai baat

mil jaen azhdaham mein hum hi ye humse dur
