khote hain agar jaan to kho lene de

karte nahin kuchh to kaam karna kya aae

tu hath ko jab hath mein le leti hai

kahti hain yahi teri nigahen ai dost

har saz se hoti nahin ye dhun paida

pate jaana hai aur na khote jaana

har sans mein gulzar se khil jate the

rakhsha-bandhan ki subh ras ki putli

amrit wo halahal ko bana deti hai

aankhen hain ki paigham mohabbat wale

aa ja ki khaDi hai sham parda ghere

ai mani-e-kainat mujh mein aa ja

sani nahin tera na koi teri misal

man aur bahan bhi aur chaheti beTi

aawaz pe sangit ka hota hai bharam

har jalwe se ek dars-e-numu leta hun

kya tere KHayal ne bhi chheDa hai sitar

mukhDa dekhen to mah-pare chhup jaen

aankhon mein wo ras jo patti patti dho jae

gesu bikhre hue ghaTaen be-KHud

kis pyar se hoti hai KHafa bachche se

jab raat gae suhag karti hai nigah

zulfon se fazaon mein adahaT ka saman

qatre araq-e-jism ke moti ki laDi

doshiza-e-bahaar muskurae jaise

chaDhti hui naddi hai ki lahraati hai

jab chand ki wadiyon se naghme barsen

wo chehra suta hua wo husn-e-bimar

ghunche ko nasim gudgudae jaise

nikhre badan ka muskurana hai hai

jo rang uDa wo rang aaKHir laya

mahtab mein surKH anar jaise chhuTe

yun ishq ki aanch kha ke rang aur khile

premi ko buKhaar uTh nahin sakti hai palak

ai rup ki laxmi ye jalwon ka rag

panghaT pe gagariyan chhalakne ka ye rang

jis tarah naddi mein ek tara lahrae

isa ke nafs mein bhi ye ejaz nahin

gul hain ki ruKH-e-garm ke hain angare

afsurda faza pe jaise chhaya ho hiras

qamat hai ki angDaiyan leti sargam

sote jadu jagane wale din hain

komal pad-gamini ki aahaT to suno

khulta hi nahin husn hai pinhan ki ayan

dhima dhima sa nur jaise tah-e-saz

saghar kaf-e-dast mein surahi ba-baghal

ye raaz-o-niyaz aur ye saman KHalwat ka

phulon ki suhag sej ye joban ras

lachka lachka badan mujassam hai nasim

sahra mein zaman makan ke kho jati hain
