kaisi kaisi bastiyan do din mein viran ho gain
dekhte hi dekhte gard-e-pareshan ho gain

shaghl-e-mai kab tak ye saqi aankhen jhuk aaen bahut
raat bhigi aur zulfen bhi pareshan ho gain

phirti hain aankhon mein saqi shab ki wo kaifiyyaten
dekhte hi dekhte khwab-e-pareshan ho gain

taqat-e-majnun kuja nazzara-e-laili kuja
parda-e-mahmil utha aur aankhen hairan ho gain

arsa-e-qaid-e-hayat ab wahshiyon par tang hai
chaar diwar-e-anasir mil ke zindan ho gain

ras aai hai na aaegi zamane ki hawa
'yas' kya kya sohbaten gard-e-pareshan ho gain
