id hai qatl mera ahl-e-tamasha ke liye

Thokar bhi rah-e-ishq mein khani zarur hai

meri bandagi se mere jurm afzun

ho sake kya apni wahshat ka ilaj

kahin hai id ki shadi kahin matam hai maqtal mein

jis mein lakhon baras ki huren hon

zikr-e-mehr-o-wafa to hum karte

sunai jati hain dar-parda galiyan mujhko

lakh dene ka ek dena tha

saqiya tishnagi ki tab nahin

le chala jaan meri ruTh ke jaana tera

ruh kis mast ki pyasi gai mai-KHane se

kahna kisi ka subh-e-shab-e-wasl naz se

roz-o-shab mujhko hai yahi dhaDka

arz-e-ahwal ko gila samjhe
