tu ne kya dekha nahin gul ka pareshan ahwal
maza aab-e-baqa ka jaan-e-jaanan
aaina kabhi qabil-e-didar na howe
muqabil ho hamare kasb-e-taqlidi se kya taqat
kahiyo KHud-bin se ki aaine mein tanha mat baiTh
aankhon se dil ke did ko mane nahin nafas
gar shaiKH ne aah ki to mat bhul
aashiq ki siyah-rozi ijad hui jis din
ho gul bulbul tabhi bulbul pe bulbul phul kar gul ho
laila ka siyah KHema ya aankh hai hirnon ki
giraftari ki lazzat aur nira aazad kya jaane
ai muqallid bul-hawas humse na kar dawa-e-ishq
ishq raushan tha wahan dida-e-ahu se charagh
duKHtar-e-raz mat kaho napak hai
shewa-e-afsurdagi ko kam na bujh
