tamam shab dil-e-wahshi talash karta hai

tera jamal nigahon mein le ke uTTha hun

hazar dard shab-e-arzu ki rah mein hai

dida-e-tar pe wahan kaun nazar karta hai

baqi hai koi sath to bas ek usi ka

mai-KHanon ki raunaq hain kabhi KHanqahon ki

ye KHun ki mahak hai ki lab-e-yar ki KHushbu

jo pairahan mein koi tar mohtasib se bacha

zindan zindan shor-e-anal-haq mahfil mahfil qul-qul-e-mai

na aaj lutf kar itna ki kal guzar na sake

diwar-e-shab aur aks-e-ruKH-e-yar samne

raat Dhalne lagi hai sinon mein

fikr-e-sud-o-ziyan to chuTegi

Dhalti hai mauj mai ki tarah raat in dinon

phir hashr ke saman hue aiwan-e-hawas mein
