rang jin ke mit gae hain un mein yar aane ko hai
dhum hai pazhmurda phulon mein bahaar aane ko hai

yar kuche mein tere dhuni ramane ke liye
gham-zada hasrat-zada ek khaksar aane ko hai

rahm karna ab ki meri aankh khulne ki nahin
aakhiri ghash mujh ko ai parwardigar aane ko hai

koi dam mein hashr hoga kuchh khabar bhi hai tumhein
be-qarari lati hai ek be-qarar aane ko hai

bhage jate hain bagule kanpta hai najd-e-qais
khak udi kis ki yahan kis ka ghubar aane ko hai

hosh ude jate hain yaro ruh hai sahmi hui
said-gah-e-ishq se kis ka shikar aane ko hai

jaan-e-jaan tu kijo jaan-bakhshi ki tujh ko dekhne
ek be-kas be-khud o be-ikhtiyar aane ko hai

dard-e-tanhai se chhudata hai aalam naza ka
be-qarari kuch karti hai qarar aane ko hai

gul-rukhon ki bazm mein jaane ko hai mera ghubar
peshwai ke liye abr-e-bahaar aane ko hai

ab meri aankhon ko hoga walwala didar ka
hasrat in mein aa chuki hai intizar aane ko hai

hogi ab aarasta turbat shahid-e-naz ki
chadar-e-gul bichhti hai sham-e-mazar aane ko hai

be-wafa tum ba-wafa main dekhiye hota hai kya
ghaiz mein aane ko tum ho mujh ko pyar aane ko hai

ghuncha-o-gul kar rahi hain kyun gareban chaak chaak
kaun se rashk-e-chaman ka dil-figar aane ko hai

hijr mein dam ghutne ko hai kuch hai tafrih ka
sans rukne ko hai hichki chand bar aane ko hai

baithi hai laila gareban phadne ke waste
kis ke majnun ka libas-e-tar-tar aane ko hai

ghash se chaunko aankh kholo dam na todo ai 'sharaf'
shukr ka sajda karo uth baitho yar aane ko hai
