hasin hai to rahe subh teri par nahin kar
main shab-parast hun mujh par abhi sahar nahin kar

jo rah main ne chuni hai kahin nahin jati
umid-e-naz mujhe apna ham-safar nahin kar

tamash-bin mere hone ke munharif ho jaen
ab is qadar bhi kahani ko mukhtasar nahin kar

tu chandni ke tarannum se khilne wala badan
main be-charagh thikana hun mujh ko ghar nahin kar

abhi guman kai marhalon se guzrega
ai baddua-e-tazabzub-dilan asar nahin kar

ye badhte sae shikari hain mere suraj ke
khudaya sham ab itni bhi mo'atabar nahin kar

dariche hain koi aankhen khudai duniya ki
inhin se ho ke guzar aur koi dar nahin kar
