mere saqi ek aisa daur-e-saghar
piyun ji bhar ke ashk-e-dida-e-tar

jamal-e-dost yun ho jalwa-farma
giren meri nazar se mah-o-akhtar

hawaen le uden zulfon ki khushbu
ye duniya ho faza-e-ud-o-anbar

tere qurb-e-shamim-ara ke sadqe
meri har sans ho jae moattar

dhadakta hai mera dil be-tahasha
larazti hai agar shakh-e-gul-e-tar

chamakta ja chamakta ja musalsal
tamannaon ke ai mah-e-munawwar

yahan hain phul kam kante ziyaada
to phir ho jaiye kanton ke khugar

isi ummid par kat jae ya rab
kabhi hoga sukun-e-dil mayassar

mujhe sheron mein kah dena hai 'maghmum
guzarti hai jo lamha lamha dil par
