gora mukhda gore gal
us pe qayamat bikhre baal

kis din hoga un se milna
dekh nujumi meri fal

hijr mein tere jaan-e-tamanna
ek ek pal hai sau sau sal

ghair hain ghere un ko har dam
kaise gale phir apni dal

ek nazar hai dil ki qimat
kitna hai ye sasta mal

aaj hai saqi mauj mein pi le
baat na us ki zahid tal

hath na rangiye aap hina se
khun se mere kije lal

dekh ke rahna bagh mein bulbul
liye shikari phirte jal

rokega har tir ko tere
sine mera ban kar dhaal

un pe aa kar chhai jawani
mujh pe ghar kar aaya kal

tauba tauba mast jawani
allah allah banki chaal

koi nahin hai jag mein apna
kis ko sunaen dil ka haal

jine ka jo lutf hai lena
gham ki bulbul dil mein pal

ghairon ka to kaam hai jalna
baat pe un ki mitti dal

sun kar mere mithe sher
tapke 'jauhar' sab ki ral
