gham nahin go ai falak rutba hai mujh ko khar ka
aaftab ek zard patta hai mere gulzar ka

zulf ke halqe mein uljha sabza gosh-e-yar ka
ho gaya sang-e-zamurrad khal chashm-e-mar ka

nakhuda hai maut jo dam hai so hai baad-e-murad
azm hai kashti-e-tan ko bahr-e-hasti yar ka

khana-e-zanjir se misl-e-sada darta hun ab
yaad aata hai kaf-e-pa mein khatakna khar ka

josh-e-girya ne kiya hai na-tawan itna mujhe
tutna mumkin nahin hai aansuon ke tar ka

kha gai aakhir mujhe chashm-e-siyah-e-surmagin
zarq qismat ne kiya hai zangi aadam-khwar ka

sai-e-la-hasil mudawa-e-mariz-e-ishq hai
thamna mumkin nahin girti hui diwar ka

hath qatil ka gareban tak pahunch sakta nahin
aur fart-e-shauq hai yan zakhm damn-dar ka

phul jo hai apne gulshan ka sipar ka phul hai
har shajar is bagh mein lata hai phal talwar ka

khatt-e-ru-e-yar se iza uthai hai zi-bas
sabza se hota hai sadma mere dil ko khar ka

garche pesh-e-taq-e-abru-e-sanam gesu nahin
kaba par nargha hua hai lashkar-e-kuffar ka

ai sanam teri karanji aankh se sabit hua
rang ud jata hai ru-e-mardum-e-bimar ka

yaad mein teri raqib-e-ru-siyah jaga to kya
martaba aali na ho khuffash-e-shab-bedar ka

us pari-ru ke jo kuche ka guzarta hai khayal
ban ke jin saya lipta hai mujhe diwar ka

uth ke diwar-e-lahad se murde takraate sar
ek qayamat hai sanam aalam teri raftar ka

kham nadamat se kiya mehrab mein kaba ke sar
gardan-e-zahid se bojh uttha na jab zunnar ka

zindagi mein be-adab hone na de tu roab-e-husn
khak hai meri pas-az-marg aur daman yar ka

ai sanam aashiq se ruposhi nahin lazim tujhe
parda musa se nahin allah ko didar ka

bu-e-gul 'atish' kahin hoti hai mahsus-e-nazar
afza hai roz-e-mahshar yar ke didar ka
