ab jo dena hai mere dost mohabbat dena

ab jo dena hai mere dost mohabbat dena
yun bhi achchha nahin hota hai aziyyat dena
ab teri baat koi mujh ko bhali lagti nahin
chhodta kyon nahin tu yar nasihat dena


gar mujhe dena ho idrak-e-taghazzul ka nisab
mere maula mujhe sau sal ki khalwat dena
main tere lutf-o-‘inayat ka hami to nahin
ho sake to mujhe jaane ki ijazat dena


rasm-e-diwangi ki ek ada ye bhi hai
zakhm-e-taza ko na bharne ki suhulat dena
ab koi aur na yusuf bane farzand-e-chah
bani-ya'qub ko thodi si murawwat dena


'ishq wo qaid-e-masarrat hai ki har lamha 'ayaz'
dil ye kahta hai ye zanjir hata mat dena
