ishq mein soz na ho husn mein taskhir na ho
phir to takhrib hi duniya mein ho tamir na ho

teri insan ye azmat na ho tauqir na ho
masiyat ki jo tere panw mein zanjir na ho

shikwa-e-katib-e-taqdir baja hai lekin
dast-e-tadbir mein jab daman-e-taqdir na ho

dil ki aawaz asar se nahin hoti khali
hai kami tujh mein agar baat mein tasir na ho

tu bata tere siwa aur main kis se mangun
ikhtiyar itna ki sarzad koi taqsir na ho

araq-alud jabin nichi nazar lab pe hansi
jis ko wo dekh rahe hain meri taswir na ho
