lazim hai soz-e-ishq ka shola ayan na ho
jal-bujhiye is tarah se ki mutlaq dhuan na ho

zakhm-e-jigar ka wa kisi surat wahan na ho
paikan-e-yar is mein jo shakl-e-zaban na ho

allah re be-hisi ki jo dariya mein gharq hon
talab ki tarah kabhi pani rawan na ho

gul khanda-zan hai chahchahe karti hai andalib
phaili hui chaman mein kahin zafaran na ho

bhago yahan se ye dil-e-nalan ki hai sada
bahke ho yaro ye jaras-e-karwan na ho

hasti adam se hai meri wahshat ki ek shalang
ai zulf-e-yar panw ki tu bediyan na ho

lena bajae fatiha turbat pe nam-e-yar
marne pe ye khayal hai wo bad-guman na ho

naqa chala hai najd mein laila ka be-mahaar
majnun ki ban padegi agar sar-ban na ho

chaalon se charkh ki ye mera azm hai 'surur'
is sarzamin pe jaun jahan aasman na ho
