mashhur chaman mein teri gul pairahani hai
qurban tere har uzw pe nazuk-badani hai

uryani-e-ashufta kahan jae pas-az-marg
kushta hai tera aur yahi be-kafni hai

samjhe hai na parwana na thame hai zaban shama
wo sokhtani hai to ye gardan-zadani hai

leta hi nikalta hai mera lakht-e-jigar ashk
aansu nahin goya ki ye hire ki kani hai

bulbul ki kaf-e-khak bhi ab hogi pareshan
jame ka tere rang sitamgar chimani hai

kuchh to ubhar ai surat-e-shirin ki dikhaun
farhad ke zimme bhi ajab koh-kani hai

hon garm-e-safar sham-e-ghariban se khushi hon
ai subh-e-watan tu to mujhe be-watani hai

har-chand gada hun main tere ishq mein lekin
in bul-hawason mein koi mujh sa bhi ghani hai

har ashk mera hai dur-e-shahwar se behtar
har lakht-e-jigar rashk-e-aqiq-e-yamani hai

bigdi hai nipat 'mir' tapish aur jigar mein
shayad ki mere ji hi par ab aan bani hai
