baatil hai hum se dawa shaer ko ham-sari ka
diwan hai hamara kisa jawahari ka

chehra tera sa kab hai sultan-e-khawari ka
chira hazar bandhe sar par jo wo zari ka

munh par ye goshwara moti ka jalwa-gar hai
jaise qiran-e-baham ho mah o mushtari ka

aaina-khane mein wo jis waqt aan baithe
phir jis taraf ko dekho jalwa hai wan pari ka

juz shauq-e-dil na pahunchun hargiz ba-ku-e-jaanan
ai khizr kab hun teri muhtaj rahbari ka

jo dekhta hai tujh ko hansta hai qahqahe mar
ai shaikh tera chehra mabda hai maskhari ka

talib hain sim-o-zar ke khuban-e-hind 'sauda'
ahwal kaun samjhe aashiq ki be-zari ka
