mohabbat munh pe karna aur dil mein bewafai hai
ye aaina yahan kahta hai kaisi aashnai hai

bhala bosa hum us se aaj mangenge kisi dhab se
tawaqqo to nahin lekin ye tale aazmai hai

muhibbon ko karen hain qatl dushman ko jalate hain
buton ki bhi miyan sahib nirali hi khudai hai

ajaib rasm hai un dilbaran-e-dahr ki ya rab
kisi ke sath ja sona kahin sai badhai hai

ye aashiq apne apne ashk ko tufan kahte hain
jo sach puchho to ye ganga hamari hi khudai hai

ilahi kya banegi sath mere shaikh-o-waiz ko
idhar rindi sharabi hai udhar ko parsai hai

nahin ye abr-o-baran 'soz' ke ahwal ko sun kar
falak ki bhi mohabbat se ye ab chhati bhar aai hai
