chahat ghamze jata rahi hai
wahshat sahra dikha rahi hai

ghunchon ka jigar hila rahi hai
bulbul kya gul khila rahi hai

yusuf ka pata laga rahi hai
khushbu kanan mein aa rahi hai

shirin kya rang la rahi hai
aashiq ka lahu baha rahi hai

kis shokh ko dijiye dil-e-zar
kis mein sahab wafa rahi hai

aawaza-e-faiz hai jahan mein
jis ki shohrat sada rahi hai

dain hai pari-washon ki furqat
dil kha ke kaleja kha rahi hai

jaan nazar hui pari-rukhon ki
mitti ko hawa uda rahi hai

chahat ki kashish ne lo dubo di
yusuf ko kunen jhuka rahi hai

dil mein jo base hue hain gul-ru
surkhi aaankhon mein chha rahi hai

gahta hun jabin ko pa-e-but se
taqdir likha mita rahi hai

hanste hue dekh kar gulon ko
shabnam aansu baha rahi hai

andher ka aaj samna hai
surma wo pari laga rahi hai

kyun jaan nahin nikalti 'agha'
kaise sadme utha rahi hai
