samajh raha hai teri har khata ka hami mujhe
dikha raha hai ye aaina meri khami mujhe

zaman ki qaid hai koi na hai makan ki khabar
kahan kahan liye phirti hai tishna-kaami mujhe

nahin ki jurat-e-izhaar-e-ishq mujh mein nahin
tabah kar ke rahi meri nek-nami mujhe

koi nahin mera same isi mein khush hun main
ki ras aai bahut meri khud-kalami mujhe

maza mila na kabhi manzil-ashnai ka
kuchh aisa kar gai aawara tez-gami mujhe

hasin chehron ko tewari ke bal bigadte hain
giran guzarti hai fitrat ki bad-nizami mujhe

sharab-e-tund ki talkhi ka zaiqa jaise
pasand aai hasinon ki bad-kalami mujhe

nashat-e-takya-e-zanu se sar uthane tak
sitara subh ka deta raha salami mujhe

main farsh-e-rah yunhi to nahin hua 'azar'
nidhaal kar ke rahi us ki khush-khirami mujhe
