mah-e-nau parda-e-sahab mein hai
ya ki abru koi naqab mein hai

rangat us rukh ki gul ne pai hai
aur pasine ki bu gulab mein hai

aaj saqi shikar khelega
bat-e-mai kansa-e-sharab mein hai

tul-e-roz-e-firaq kahta hai
hashr ka roz kis hisab mein hai

sharbat-e-qand ki si shirini
dahan-e-yar ke luab mein hai

shan se kuchh bigad gai shayad
zulf-e-shab-rang pech-o-tab mein hai

ho 'sakhi' ko na fikr ya allah
arz itni teri janab mein hai
