idhar aa kar shikar-afgan hamara
mushabbak kar gaya hai tan hamara

gareban se raha kotah to phir hai
hamare hath mein daman hamara

gae jon shama us majlis mein jitne
sabhon par haal hai raushan hamara

bala jis chashm ko kahte hain mardum
wo hai ain-e-bala maskan hamara

hua rone se raaz-e-dosti fash
hamara girya tha dushman hamara

bahut chaha tha abr-e-tar ne lekin
na minnat-kash hua gulshan hamara

chaman mein hum bhi zanjiri rahe hain
suna hoga kabhu shewan hamara

kiya tha rekhta parda-sukhan ka
so thahra hai yahi ab fan hamara

na bahke mai-kade mein 'mir' kyunkar
giro sau ja hai pairahan hamara
