ghadi ghadi hai hamein apne meherban ka khayal
na kuchh zamin ki khabar hai na aasman ka khayal

ye be-khudi hai ki jis din se dil laga baithe
kahan ka hosh kahan ki khabar kahan ka khayal

ude hue hain raqibon ke hosh pe ab tak
jo dil mein aap ke aaya tha imtihan ka khayal

adu se hanste rahe raat bhar sar-e-mahfil
kiya na tum ne mere chasm-e-khun-fashan ka khayal

kisi ko do na sar-e-bazm be-dhadak gali
khuda ke waste rakkho zara zaban ka khayal

qadam jo bhul ke rakkhen rah-e-mohabbat mein
to khizr ko bhi na ho umr-e-jawedan ka khayal

laga na khuld mein bhi dil main kya bayan karun
wahan bhi mujh se na chhuta tere makan ka khayal

main us taraf kabhi rukh bhul kar nahin karta
main kya bataun jab aata hai pasban ka khayal

khuda ke waste mano mera kaha ai 'ranj'
khuda ke waste chhodo ye hai kahan ka khayal
