dil ko yaksui ne di tark-e-talluq ki salah
ai umid-e-wasl-e-jaanan kya hai ab teri salah

jab jafa-ju ne taghaful se bhi ki qat-e-nazar
ho raza-e-yar par shakir ye hai dil ki salah

hosh mein jalwa dikhane se agar hai us ko aar
hai wida-e-hosh ki har haal mein apni salah

naqd-e-jaan dildar karta hai talab main kya karun
bandagi bechaargi par ab to hai meri salah

manzil-e-ishq-o-fana karni hai tai sar-ta-ba-sar
shama ke manind jal bujhne ki hai meri salah

saf kahta hai ki tu neki kar aur dariya mein dal
dil mera deta hai mujh ko aaj neki ki salah

be tamannai mein 'sahir' main hun har-dam mere sath
dur kar dil se tamanna hai ye jaanan ki salah
