chalta nahin fareb kisi uzr-khwah ka
dil hai baghal mein ya koi daftar gunah ka

ab kya lagega dil chaman-e-rozgar mein
mara hua hai dida-e-ibrat-nigah ka

duniya maqam-e-hu nazar aaegi na-gahan
tutega jab tilism fareb-e-nigah ka

dil kaenat-e-ishq mein shahon ka shah hai
mukhtar-e-kul tamam safed o siyah ka

sabit hua kisi pe na jurm-e-wafa kabhi
parda khula na ishq-e-sarapa-gunah ka
