barmala wo bhi agar hum ko dagha deta hai

barmala wo bhi agar hum ko dagha deta hai
dil-e-betab use munh pe suna deta hai
wo sitam-kesh jab aazar naya deta hai
hum samajhte hain ki ulfat ka sila deta hai


ishq ki aag to hai yun bhi fana ka paigham
dil-e-na-fahm abas is ko hawa deta hai
aazma leta hun ahbab ko gahe-gahe
warna dene ko to har chiz khuda deta hai


aur kuchh bhi ho magar is se to inkar nahin
ishq insan ko insan bana deta hai
main jo pita hun bila-nagha sharab ai waiz
kyun tujhe chid hai agar mujh ko khuda deta hai


rahbari wo hai ki aasuda-e-manzil ho koi
warna rasta to har ek shakhs bata deta hai
ab na kyun naz karun apni wafa-keshi par
ab to khud dost mujhe dad-e-wafa deta hai


saqi-e-bazm ka ye khas karam hai 'sahir'
dekhte hi mujhe nazron se pila deta hai
