didani hain dil-e-kharab ke rang
aah us chashm-e-pur-hijab ke rang

fasl-e-gul mein paden to khub khilen
khirqa-e-zohad par sharab ke rang

shauq-e-mai dil mein lab pe hijw-e-sharab
hum pe raushan hain sab janab ke rang

nahin tauba ki khair hain jo yahi
josh-e-hangama-e-sahab ke rang

kal ke maqbul aaj hain mardud
aah is daur-e-inqilab ke rang

qabil-e-did hain visal ki shab
aarzu-ha-e-kaamyab ke rang

chehra-e-ashiqi hai pazh-murda
kya hue wo mai-e-shabab ke rang

khail-e-khuban se ek mein bhi nahin
aap ke husn-e-la-jawab ke rang

meri mayusiyon se hain paida
kashmakash-ha-e-iztirab ke rang

dil ke hathon bahut rahe hain kharab
'hasrat'-e-khanuman kharab ke rang
