barq ko us par abas girne ki hain tayyariyan
barg-e-gul hi aashiyan ko apne hai chingariyan

ahd-e-tifli mein bhi tha main bas-ki saudai-mizaj
bediyan minnat ki bhi pahnin to main ne bhaariyan

maut ke aate hi hum ko khud-bakhud nind aa gai
kya usi ki yaad mein karte the shab-bedariyan

ai khat us ke gore galon par ye tu ne kya kiya
chandni raaten yakayak ho gain andhyariyan

khanda-e-gul se sada-e-nala aati hai mujhe
khun-e-bulbul se magar sinchi gai hain kyariyan

khak ka putla bhi aahan se hai sakhti mein fuzun
jism par insan ke talwaren hui hain aariyan

khauf-e-khaliq hai wagarna mohtasib kya mal hai
khan-e-qazi mein ja kar kijiye mai-khwariyan

kuchh hamin khali nahin karte hain ye dair-e-kharab
phir gae hain yar yunhi apni apni bariyan

hukm kar 'atish' ki bazar-e-mohabbat band ho
ab karen tatpujiye garm apni dukan-dariyan
