Dub jaega aaj bhi KHurshid

muddaten ho gain KHata karte

abhi ai dost zauq-e-shaeri hai wajh-e-ruswai

rang o bu-e-gulab kah lunga

kucha-e-subh mein ja pahunche hum

dosto mashware na do hum ko

diyar-e-sabza o gul se nikal kar

zulf ki baat kiye jate hain

nit-nae shahr nit-nai duniya

sabza-zaron mein guzar tha apna

ashk aankhon mein ab hain aae se

so gae anjum-e-shab yaad na aa

gham ke sanche mein Dhal sako to chalo

tujhe paya ki tujhko kho diya hai

jahan aasan tha din ko raat karna
