aap se aap ayan shahid-e-mani hoga
ek din gardish-e-aflak se ye bhi hoga

aankhen banwaiye pahle zara ai hazrat-e-qais
kya inhin aankhon se nazzara-e-laili hoga

shauq mein daman-e-yusuf ke udenge tukde
dast-e-gustakh se kya dur hai ye bhi hoga

lakhon is husn pe mar jaenge dekha-dekhi
koi ghash hoga koi mahw-e-tajalli hoga

husn-e-zati bhi chhupae se kahin chhupta hai
sat pardon se ayan shahid-e-mani hoga

hosh udenge jo zamane ki hawa bigdegi
chaar hi din mein khizan gulshan-e-hasti hoga

aur umdega dil-e-zar jahan tak chhedo
ye bhi kya koi khazana hai ki khali hoga

dil dhadakne laga phir subh-e-judai aai
phir wahi dard wahi pahlu-e-khali hoga

ye to farmaiye kya hum mein rahega baqi
dil agar dard-e-mohabbat se bhi khali hoga

ek chullu se bhi kya 'yas' rahoge mahrum
bazm-e-mai hai to koi sahab-e-dil bhi hoga
