nigah-e-arzu-amoz ka charcha na ho jae
shararat sadgi hi mein kahin ruswa na ho jae

unhen ehsas-e-tamkin ho kahin aisa na ho jae
jo hona ho abhi ai jurat-e-rindana ho jae

ba-zahir sadgi se muskura kar dekhne walo
koi kam-bakht na-waqif agar diwana ho jae

bahut hi khub shai hai ikhtiyari shan-e-khuddari
agar mashuq bhi kuchh aur be-parwa na ho jae

irade bandhta hun sochta hun tod deta hun
kahin aisa na ho jae kahin aisa na ho jae

ilahi dil-nawazi phir karen wo mai-farosh aankhen
ilahi ittihad-e-shisha-o-paimana ho jae

meri ulfat tajjub ho gai tauba maaz-allah
ki munh se bhi na nikle baat aur afsana ho jae

ye tanhai ka aalam chand taron ki ye khamoshi
'hafiz' ab lutf hai ek nara-e-mastana ho jae
