khud apni mahfil mein tha paraya
ki ek main hi tha bin-bulaya

wo jis ki khatir main ji raha tha
wo pal bhi aakhir guzar aaya

ajab tha ye ishtirak-e-baham
main ek wahshat wo ek saya

nigarish-e-jaan tere liye main
hazar marg-o-hayat laya

badan se ab ho raha hun rukhsat
ada nahin kar saka kiraya

sarab nikla tera taaqub
main zindagi ko ganwa hi aaya
