husn ki waqat nahin ab ishq ki sarkar mein
bik gae yusuf hazaron misr ke bazar mein

jo na karna tha wo raaz-e-ishq zahir kar diya
aa ke ruswa ho gae hum majma-e-aghyar mein

aur se kya puchhte hain aa ke hum se puchhiye
kya maza milta hai dil ko aap ki guftar mein

khwab se bedar hote hi nahin hain baada-khwar
aisi masti hai hawa-e-subh ki raftar mein

ishq-e-laila mein ye dekha haal hum ne qais ka
khak chhana hi kiya wo kucha-o-bazar mein

ai masiha kis tarah hazir ho tere samne
ab sakat uthne ki bhi baqi nahin bimar mein

aafat-e-arz-e-samawi se bachega apna ghar
ism-e-azam jab hai shamil har dar-o-diwar mein

dushmanon ka dost ban jata hai kuchh din ke liye
aib hota hai ye aksar mard-e-kaj-raftar mein

kar nahin sakte hain aapas mein wo baaten hosh ki
be-khudi ka ye asar hai mai-kash o mai-khwar mein

be-khabar wo hai to hai ye ba-khabar har gam se
farq hai ai dil bahut la-ya'qil-o-hushiyar mein

dasht-o-gulshan mein nahin 'hamid' koi dil-bastagi
ji bahalta hai agar apna to ku-e-yar mein
