dushman pe rakh ke dete ho gali itab mein
hai har sukhan zaban pe tumhaari hijab mein

bahr-e-jahan mein zist na ho kyon habab-war
nuqton hi ka hai farq hayat-o-habab mein

aankhen ye aashiqon ki hain tujh par lagi huin
chhape nahin hain ye gul-e-nargis naqab mein

hum aabkhura-e-khum-e-mai ki tarah asas
dube rahen mudam gale tak sharab mein

baad-e-fana bhi shahsawar-e-samand-e-naz
hazir hain misl-e-reg-e-rawan hum rikab mein

dozakh-nasib mardum-e-abi ko ho abhi
tapke jo ashk-e-garm koi apna aab mein

har-dam rawa-rawi mein hai ye tausan-e-habab
har-waqt apna panw hai goya rikab mein

dariya ka nam shor se mansub ho gaya
dhoya jo tum ne lal-e-namak sa ko aab mein

'sabir' faqat sukhan mein hai ab lutf-e-ashiqi
har baat ka maza tha shurua-e-shabab mein
