awwal sin dil mera jo giraftar tha so hai
mere gale mein ishq ka zunnar tha so hai

ai shah-e-husn mujh kun tumhaari janab mein
muddat sin bandagi ka jo iqrar tha so hai

malum yun hua ki nasibon mein nahin shifa
shamshir-e-gham ka war jigar par tha so hai

jiyun ghuncha sair-e-bagh sin hota hun tang-dil
tujh bin meri nigah mein gul khar tha so hai

sozan misal aankh mein silti hai har palak
teri birah ka khar dil-azar tha so hai

ab lag gham-e-firaq judai ki raat mein
yaro rafiq-o-munis-o-gham-khwar tha so hai

mat bujh soz-e-ishq sin farigh siraj kun
parwana-war jaan sin balhaar tha so hai
