din ho ki raat, kunj-e-qafas ho ki sehn-e-bagh
aalam-e-rozgar se hasil nahin faragh

raghbat kise ki lijiye aish-o-tarab ka nam
fursat kahan ki kijiye sahba se pur ayagh

virana-e-hayat mein aasuda-khatiri
kis ko mila is aahu-e-ram-khurda ka suragh

aasar-e-ku-e-dost hain aur pa-shikastagi
khushbu-e-zulf-e-yar hai aur hum se be-dimagh

kis ki jabin pe hain ye sitare araq araq
kis ke lahu se chand ka daman hai dagh dagh

karte hain kasb-e-nur isi tirgi se hum
'anjum' hain dil ke dagh guhar-ha-e-shab-charagh
