ab khun ko mai qalb ko paimana kaha jae
is daur mein maqtal ko bhi mai-khana kaha jae

jo baat kahi jae wo tewar se kahi jae
jo sher kaha jae harifana kaha jae

har hont ko murjhaya hua phul samajhiye
har aankh ko chhalka hua paimana kaha jae

sunsan hue jate hain khwabon ke jazire
khwabon ke jaziron ko bhi virana kaha jae

waiz ne jo farmaya tha mehrab-e-haram mein
rindon se wo kyun saqi-e-mai-khana kaha jae

tapte hue sahra mein bhi kuchh phul khilaen
kab tak lab-o-rukhsar ka afsana kaha jae

hum subh-e-bahaaran ki tamazat se jale hain
hum se gul o shabnam ka na afsana kaha jae

diwana har ek haal mein diwana rahega
farzana kaha jae ki diwana kaha jae

makhdum se hum ko bhi hai nisbat wahi 'manzur'
rindon mein jise nisbat-e-paimana kaha jae
