piri mein shauq hausla-farsa nahin raha
wo dil nahin raha wo zamana nahin raha

kya zikr-e-mehr us ki nazar mein hai dil wo khwar
shayan-e-jaur-o-zulm dil-ara nahin raha

jhagda mita diya but-e-kafir ne din ka
ab kuchh khilaf-e-momin-o-tarsa nahin raha

ushshaq-o-bul-hawas mein nahin karte wo tamiz
wan imtiyaz-e-nek-o-bad asla nahin raha

kyun bahr-e-sair aane lage gul-rukhan-e-dahr
piri mein dil saza-e-tamasha nahin raha

kah do ki qabr-e-nash bhi ki us ki paemal
nam-o-nishan-e-ashiq-e-ruswa nahin raha

ab tak yahan hai ijz o niyaz o wafa ki dhum
wan lutf o iltifat o madara nahin raha

kashti baghair dasht-nawardi ho kis tarah
ashkon se bahr ho gaya sahra nahin raha

masti mein raat wo na khule mujh se ham-nashin
kuchh e'tibar-e-nashsha-e-sahba nahin raha

kyun jaen phir ke kabe se 'nassakh' dair ko
wo sar nahin raha wo sauda nahin raha
