shor aahon ka uTha nala falak sa nikla

hai ab to wo hamein us sarw-e-sim-bar ki talab

aaj to hamdam azm hai ye kuchh hum bhi rasmi kaam karen

andaz kuchh aur naz-o-ada aur hi kuchh hai

tan par uske sim fida aur munh par mah diwana hai

dekh aqd-e-surayya hamein angur ki sujhi

husn us shoKH ka aha-haha

nichi nigah ki humne to usne munh ko chhupana chhoD diya

bazm-e-tarab waqt-e-aish saqi o naql o sharab

ki talab ek shah ne kuchh pand az-hakim-e-nukta-dan

tujhe kuchh bhi KHuda ka tars hai ai sang-dil tarsa

rahe jo shab ko hum us gul ke sat koThe par

mil kar sanam se apne hangam-e-dil-kushai

rakhta hai go qadim se buniyaad aagara

hua KHurshid ke dekhe se duna iztirab apna
