na ai dil surat-e-shaikh-e-haram diwana ban jaana
kahin aana na jaana zaer-e-but-khana ban jaana

tumhaari dida-e-makhmur ko ye khub aata hai
kabhi shisha kabhi saghar kabhi paimana ban jaana

ajab aalam hai mad-hosh ka teri josh-e-masti mein
kabhi diwana ban jaana kabhi mastana ban jaana

dil-e-sozan dikhana jalwa husn-o-ishq donon ka
kahin sham-e-shabistan aur kahin parwana ban jaana

ye thi talqin-e-saqi waqt-e-rukhsat apni maston ko
kahin diwana ban jaana kahin farzana ban jaana

usi mein kuchh mafar apna nazar aaya hasinon ko
ki ja kar der mein chupke but-e-but-khana ban jaana

karishme hain ye sare jalwa-e-husn-e-haqiqi ke
kahin aashiq kahin andaz-e-mashuqana ban jaana

nawa-e-raaz saz-e-ishq be-khud kyun na kar dale
ki har parde se aati hai sada diwana ban jaana

yahi ibrat-sara-e-dahr ka har roz naqsha hai
kahin kashana ho jaana kahin virana ban jaana

khabar kis ko thi yun aalam mein ruswai meri hogi
ki unwan-e-mohabbat ko bhi tha afsana na ban jaana

ye aalam bekhudi-e-ishq ka ai 'shauq' kya kahiye
tasawwur mein kisi ke aap se begana ban jaana
