nikohish hai saza fariyaadi-e-be-dad-e-dilbar ki
mabaada khanda-e-dandan-numa ho subh mahshar ki

rag-e-laila ko khak-e-dasht-e-majnun reshgi bakhshe
agar bowe baja-e-dana dahqan nok nishtar ki

par-e-parwana shayad baadban-e-kashti-e-mai tha
hui majlis ki garmi se rawani daur-e-saghar ki

karun be-dad-e-zauq-e-par-fishani arz kya qudrat
ki taqat ud gai udne se pahle mere shahpar ki

kahan tak roun us ke kheme ke pichhe qayamat hai
meri qismat mein ya-rab kya na thi diwar patthar ki

ba-juz diwangi hota na anjam-e-khud-arai
agar paida na karta aaina zanjir jauhar ki

ghurur-e-lutf-e-saqi nashsha-e-be-baki-e-mastan
nam-e-daman-e-isyan hai tarawat mauj-e-kausar ki

mera dil mangte hain aariyat ahl-e-hawas shayad
ye jaana chahte hain aaj dawat mein samundar ki

'asad' juz aab-e-bakhshidan ze-dariya khizr ko kya tha
dubota chashma-e-haiwan mein gar kashti sikandar ki
