reg-e-rawan pe naqsh-e-kaf-e-pa na dekhna
aaina-e-zamir mein chehra na dekhna

be-sarfa hai lahu ki tamazat mere liye
asrar-e-jism-o-jaan ko barhana na dekhna

jo aansuon ke lal-o-jawahar bikher de
us ek mauj-e-dard ko uthta na dekhna

raaton ka chain din ka sukun ho agar aziz
chalta hai sath sath jo saya na dekhna

hai shab ki aastin mein gunahon ki raushni
zakhm-e-nazar se surat-e-zeba na dekhna

hum bhi fasil-e-shahr ke sae mein aa ruke
wa ho dar-e-murad to sahra na dekhna

ye ehtiyat-e-waz-e-junun hi nahin magar
rah-e-wafa mein apne ko begana dekhna

har shakh par jale hue lamhon ki rakh hai
fasl-e-bahaar zakhm-e-tamanna na dekhna
