girani-e-shab-e-hijran do-chand kya karte
ilaj-e-dard tere dardmand kya karte

wahin lagi hai jo nazuk maqam the dil ke
ye farq dast-e-adu ke gazand kya karte

jagah jagah pe the naseh to ku-ba-ku dilbar
inhen pasand unhen na-pasand kya karte

hamin ne rok liya panja-e-junun warna
hamein asir ye kotah-kamand kya karte

jinhen khabar thi ki shart-e-nawa-gari kya hai
wo khush-nawa gila-e-qaid-o-band kya karte

gulu-e-ishq ko dar-o-rasan pahunch na sake
to laut aae tere sar-buland kya karte
