aae hain 'mir' munh ko banae khafa se aaj
shayad bigad gai hai kuchh us bewafa se aaj

washud hui na dil ko faqiron ke bhi mile
khulti nahin girah ye kasu ki dua se aaj

jine mein ikhtiyar nahin warna ham-nashin
hum chahte hain maut to apni khuda se aaj

saqi tuk ek mausam-e-gul ki taraf bhi dekh
tapka pade hai rang chaman mein hawa se aaj

tha ji mein us se miliye to kya kya na kahiye 'mir'
par kuchh kaha gaya na gham-e-dil haya se aaj
