izn-e-khiram lete hue aasman se hum
hat kar chale hain rahguzar-e-karwan se hum

kya puchhte ho jhumte aae kahan se hum
pi kar uthe hain khum-kada-e-asman se hum

kyunkar hua hai fash zamane pe kya kahen
wo raaz-e-dil jo kah na sake raaz-dan se hum

hamdam yahi hai rahguzar-e-yar-e-khush-khiram
guzre hain lakh bar isi kahkashan se hum

kya kya hua hai hum se junun mein na puchhiye
uljhe kabhi zamin se kabhi aasman se hum

har nargis-e-jamil ne makhmur kar diya
pi kar uthe sharab har ek bostan se hum

thukra diye hain aql o khirad ke sanam-kade
ghabra chuke the kashmakash-e-imtihan se hum

dekhenge hum bhi kaun hai sajda taraaz-e-shauq
le sar utha rahe hain tere aastan se hum

bakhshi hain hum ko ishq ne wo juraten 'majaz'
darte nahin siyasat-e-ahl-e-jahan se hum
