kaun kahta hai ki mahrumi ka shikwa na karo
han magar saqi-e-mai-khana ko ruswa na karo

zikr chhid jae agar qaum ki bad-bakhti ka
rahnumaon ki taraf koi ishaara na karo

zehn sanjida masail se hatane ke liye
roz ye shaikh o barhaman ka tamasha na karo

ek bhi lafz hatane ki nahin gunjaish
mere paigham-e-mohabbat ka khulasa na karo

ye talluq ki kharashen bhi maza deti hain
ruth jae koi tum se to manaya na karo

aaj bhi main nahin insan se mayus ki jab
log kahte hain khuda par bhi bharosa na karo
