kabhi firaq kabhi lazzat-e-visal mein rakh
mujh e'tidal se aari ko e'tidal mein rakh

nacha raha hai mujhe ungliyon pe ishq tera
tamam umr isi raqs-e-be-misal mein rakh

dukhi ho dil to utarti hai shairi mujh par
tujhe ghazal ki qasam hai mujhe malal mein rakh

tu chahta hai agar kar-e-afatab karun
mera uruj meri saat-e-zawal mein rakh

tere baghair guzari hai zindagi main ne
tu is sitam ki talafi bhi mah-o-sal mein rakh

tu dil hai aur dhdakna teri ibaadat hai
so khud ko jism se bahar bhi tu dhamal mein rakh

shikam se ho ke guzarte hain qaul-o-feal mere
mujh aise shakhs ko nan-o-namak ke jal mein rakh

mere badan ko bhale is se aag lag jae
charagh-e-harf magar mere baal baal mein rakh

main is azab ke nashshe mein mubtala hun 'kabir'
parai aag utha kar meri sifal mein rakh
