ishq ne samne hote hi jalaya dil ko
kahun ki shaiKH-e-zamana hun laf to ye hai
karun qat-e-ulfat buton se wa-lekin
yar gar puchhe to kije kuchh arz
na tu jaldi kar ai dast-e-junun naseh ko sine de
gar shaiKH azm-e-manzil-e-haq hai to aa idhar
ishq mein dard se hai hurmat-e-dil
na-chaar hai dil zulf-e-girah-gir ke aage
hain shaiKH o barhaman tasbih aur zunnar ke bande
kab is ji ki haalat koi jaanta hai
ai bahr na tu itna umanD chal mere aage
shab-e-hijr mein ek din dekhna
bahaar is dhum se aai gai ummid jine ki
