jis kun piyo ke hijr ka bairag hai
aah ka majlis mein us ki rag hai

kyun na hoe dil jal ke khakistar naman
aatishin-ru ki mohabbat aag hai

ai dil us ke zahr sen waswas kar
zulf nin hai balki kala nag hai

jab sen laya ishq ne fauj-e-junun
aql ke lashkar mein bhaga bhag hai

tala-e-sikandari rakhta 'siraj'
ru-ba-ru aaina-ru kya bhag hai
