waraftagi-e-ishq na jae to kya karen
tera bhi ab khayal na aae to kya karen

khud sharm-e-ishq dil ko mitae to kya karen
un tak nigah-e-shauq na jae to kya karen

mai-khwariyan gunah sahi saqi-e-azal
jab abr jhum jhum ke aae to kya karen

ye dair wo haram ye kalisa wo mai-kada
apni taraf har ek bulae to kya karen

mumkin hai har khayal ka dil se nikalna
tera khayal aa ke na jae to kya karen

mana nigah-e-shauq rahe ehtiyat se
har jalwa khud nazar mein samae to kya karen

'basit' sitam pe shukr-e-sitam chahiye magar
koi karam se hum ko mitae to kya karen
