sar jhukae sar-e-mahshar jo gunahgar aae
us ke andaz pe rahmat ko na kyun pyar aae

jam-o-paimana se mai-khana se kya kaam use
ho ke saqi ki nigahon se jo sarshaar aae

di sada dil ne zara aur bhi dushwar ho rah
raste jab bhi mere samne hamwar aae

zindagi kyun na mere maut pe un ki jo log
muskuraate hue zindan se sar-e-dar aae

main ne tazin-e-chaman ke liye khun apna diya
pae phul auron ne hisse mein mere khar aae

bankpan apni tabiat ka kabhi kam na hua
samne apne koi lakh tarah-dar aae

aise jaan-bazon ki ban jae na kyun maut hayat
muskuraate hue 'asi' jo sar-e-dar aae
