sharab aae to kaif-o-asar ki baat karo

nahin aasan tark-e-ishq karna dil se gham jaana

rahbar-e-tabl-o-nishan aur zara tez qadam

shairo hadd-e-qadamat se nikal kar dekho

luTao jaan to banti hai baat kis ne kaha

sahaara de nahin sakte shikasta panw ko

nadim bagh mein josh-e-numu ki baat na kar

zaban band rahi dil ka muddaa na kaha

yun badalti hai kahin barq-o-sharar ki surat

kaun sunta hai sirf zat ki baat
