kaun aaya gesuon ko pareshan kiye hue
bardadi-e-nigah ka saman kiye hue

phir chahta hun khanjar-e-qatil se irtibaat
dushwari-e-hayat ko aasan kiye hue

phir sahil-e-murad ki hai dil ko aarzu
kashti ko nazr-e-shorish-e-tufan kiye hue

phir hun tere taghaful-e-zahir ka shikwa-sanj
jaan ko fida-e-pursish-e-pinhan kiye hue

phir hain harim-e-naz se jalwon ki barishen
hairani-e-nigah ka saman kiye hue

'maikash' nahin mujhe mai-o-mai-khana ki talash
baitha hun chashm-e-yar se paiman kiye hue
