agar in bazuon mein dam nahin hai
to gulshan bhi qafas se kam nahin hai

mere saz-e-junun ke chhedne ko
kali ka ek tabassum kam nahin hai

mujhe duniya mere aalam mein dekhe
har-ik aalam mera aalam nahin hai

na de mujh ko fareb-e-ishq duniya
fareb-e-zindagi kuchh kam nahin hai

gham-e-tauhin-e-mai-khana hai 'shaarib'
mujhe tishna-labi ka gham nahin hai
