phul mahke chamanistan mein jo khandan ho kar
hum bhi sahra ko chale chaak-e-gareban ho kar

ye bhi hai shumi-e-taqdir ki rah jate hain
un ki mahfil mein mere qatl ke saman ho kar

sham-e-hasrat mein jalao na hamein bahr-e-khuda
aate hain bazm mein ek raat ke mehman ho kar

gad gaya aur nadamat se pas-e-marg jo wo
aa ke baithe meri baalin pe pasheman ho kar

hum to gesu ko tere saunp chale hain dam-e-naza
dekhen ab rahti hai kis ki shab-e-hijran ho kar

mere nalon ki jo aawaz pahunch jati hai
ghar se bahar nikal aate hain pareshan ho kar

pahle jo haalat-e-wahshat pe hansa karte the
ro rahe hain wahi ab chaak-gareban ho kar

dil to wo le gae pahli hi nazar mein 'sayyaf'
kya mudaraat karen be-sar-o-saman ho kar
