na harif-e-jaan na sharik-e-gham shab-e-intizar koi to ho
kise bazm-e-shauq mein laen hum dil-e-be-qarar koi to ho

kise zindagi hai aziz ab kise aarzu-e-shab-e-tarab
magar ai nigar-e-wafa talab tera e'tibar koi to ho

kahin tar-e-daman-e-gul mile to ye man len ki chaman khile
ki nishan fasl-e-bahaar ka sar-e-shakh-sar koi to ho

ye udas udas se baam o dar ye ujad ujad si rah-guzar
chalo hum nahin na sahi magar sar-e-ku-e-yar koi to ho

ye sukun-e-jaan ki ghadi dhale to charagh-e-dil hi na bujh chale
wo bala se ho gham-e-ishq ya gham-e-rozgar koi to ho

sar-e-maqtal-e-shab-e-arzu rahe kuchh to ishq ki aabru
jo nahin adu to 'faraaz' tu ki nasib-e-dar koi to ho
