falak ne ranj tir-e-ah se mere ze-bas khencha
labon tak dil se shab nale ko main ne nim ras khencha

mere shokh-e-kharabaati ki kaifiyyat na kuchh puchho
bahaar-e-husn ko di aab us ne jab charas khencha

raha josh-e-bahaar is fasl gar yunhi to bulbul ne
chaman mein dast-e-gul-chin se ajab ranj is baras khencha

kaha yun sahib-e-mahmil ne sun kar soz majnun ka
takalluf kya jo nala be-asar misl-e-jaras khencha

nazakat rishta-e-ulfat ki dekho sans dushman ki
khabardar 'arzu' tuk garm kar tar-e-nafas khencha
