ho ke betab badal lete the aksar karwat
ab ye hai zoaf ki qabu se hai bahar karwat

hijr se badh ke shab-e-wasl aziyyat hai mujhe
ghair ki yaad dilati hai teri har karwat

rind bimar raha mohtasib-e-shara se tez
is qadar jald are phenk ke saghar karwat

chutkiyan hijr mein leti hai shikan bistar ki
mere pahlu mein chubho deti hai nashtar karwat

shokhiyan hain ki bane hijr ki shab wasl ki raat
so rahe pher ke munh aap badal kar karwat

baithna un ka nazakat se daba kar sina
phir ye kahna ki na lena tah-e-khanjar karwat

teri thokar se na ulte kahin wo takhta-e-qabr
le na khwabida koi fitna-e-mahshar karwat

har taraf kante bichhe hain shikan bistar ke
hum ko mushkil hai badalna sar-e-bistar karwat

unhen munh pher ke sone nahin deta hun 'riyaz'
wasl ki raat mujhe kyun na ho dubhar karwat
