anmol sahi nayab sahi be-dam-o-diram bik jate hain

fasla to hai magar koi fasla nahin

rakhna hai to phulon ko tu rakh le nigahon mein

gali gali hai andhera to mere sath chalo

qaid-e-gham-e-hayat se hum ko chhuDa liya

zaban ko hukm hi kahan ki dastan-e-gham kahen

wo dil bhi jalate hain rakh dete hain marham bhi

jashn-e-hayat ho chuka jashn-e-mamat aur hai

sharab o sher ke sanche mein Dhal ke aai hai

chaman chaman jo ye subh-e-bahaar ki zau hai

un ka wada badal gaya hai

yaad ki subh Dhal gai shauq ki sham ho gai

gham do aalam ka jo milta hai to gham hota hai

agarche ishq mein ek be-KHudi si rahti hai

pi kar bhi tabiat mein talKHi hai girani hai

hamin the aise sar-phire hamin the aise manchale

jo mil gai hain nigahen kabhi nigahon se

KHamosh kis liye baiThe ho chashm-e-tar kyun ho

shama par shama jalati hui sath aati hai

zahr ko mai dil-e-sad-para ko mina na kaho

aa rahi hai shab-e-gham meri taraf mere liye

dard-shanas dil nahin jalwa-talab nazar nahin

samjhe hai mafhum nazar ka dil ka ishaara jaane hai

ye KHushi gham-e-zamana ka shikar ho na jae

pi le jo lahu dil ka wo ishq ki masti hai

wahan khule bhi to kyunkar bisat-e-hikmat-o-fan

junun to hai magar aao junun mein kho jaen

yun tere mast sar-e-rah chala karte hain

hujum-e-dard mein KHandan hai kaun mere siwa

chaman lahak ke rah gaya ghaTa machal ke rah gai

wo junun ke ahd ki chandni ye gahan gahan ki udasiyan

zulmat-gah-e-dauran mein subh-e-chaman-e-dil hun

nikal paDe hain sanam raat ke shiwale se

sahar ko de ke nai nikhat-e-hayat gai

TuTi hui kashti ko kinare bhi mile hain

mana ki sai-e-ishq ka anjam-kar kya

KHud koi chaak-gareban hai rag-e-jaan ke qarib

gulon pe saya-e-gham-ha-e-rozgar mile

bachao daman-e-dil aise ham-nashinon se

jo dekhte hue naqsh-e-qadam gae honge

mujhe dair se talluq na haram se aashnai

hanso na tum ruKH-e-dushman jo zard hai yaro

kaun hai dard-ashna sang-dili ka daur hai

nigar-e-mah-wash o mahbub-e-lala-ru ki tarah
