fareb-e-nikhat-o-gulzar se bachao mujhe
karam karo kisi sahra mein chhod aao mujhe

wo jins hun main jise bik ke muddaten guzrin
jo ho sake to kahin se kharid lao mujhe

machal rahi hai nazar chhu ke dekhiye us ko
simat raha hai badan hath mat lagao mujhe

kisi tarah in andheron ki umr to kam ho
jalane walo zara der tak jalao mujhe

kisi pe apne siwa ab nazar nahin padti
meri nigah se ai dosto bachao mujhe

ye kis ki lash liye jate ho uthae hue
kahin wo main to nahin hun zara dikhao mujhe

bikhar chuka hun 'ali' main ghazal ke sheron mein
bisat-e-ariz-o-lab se samet lao mujhe
