chaak par chaak hua jun jun sulaya hum ne
is gareban hi se ab hath uthaya hum ne

hasrat-e-lutf-e-azizan-e-chaman ji mein rahi
sar pe dekha na gul-o-sarwa ka saya hum ne

ji mein tha arsh pe ja bandhiye takiya lekin
bistara khak hi mein ab to bichhaya hum ne

baad yak umr kahin tum ko jo tanha paya
darte darte hi kuchh ahwal sunaya hum ne

yan faqat rekhta hi kahne na aae the hum
chaar din ye bhi tamasha sa dikhaya hum ne

bare kal bagh mein ja murgh-e-chaman se mil kar
khubi-e-gul ka maza khub udaya hum ne

tazgi dagh ki har sham ko be-hech nahin
aah kya jaane diya kis ka bujhaya hum ne

dasht-o-kohsar mein sar mar ke chande tujh bin
qais-o-farhad ko phir yaad dilaya hum ne

bekali se dil-e-betab ki mar guzre the
so tah-e-khak bhi aaram na paya hum ne

ye sitam taza hua aur ki paiz mein 'mir'
dil-e-khas-o-khar se na-chaar lagaya hum ne
