tauba ki nazishon pe sitam dha ke pi gaya
pi! us ne jab kaha to main ghabra ke pi gaya

dil hi to hai uthae kahan tak gham-o-alam
main roz ke malal se ukta ke pi gaya

thin lakh garche mahshar o marqad ki uljhanen
gutthi ko zabt-e-shauq ki suljha ke pi gaya

mai-khana-e-bahaar mein muddat ka tishna-lab
saqi khata-muaf! khata kha ke pi gaya

niyyat nahin kharab na aadi hun ai nadim!
aalam-e-rozgar se tang aa ke pi gaya!

saqi ke husn-e-dida-e-mai-gun ke samne
main jalwa-e-bahisht ko thukra ke pi gaya

uttha jo abr dil ki umangen chamak uthin
lahrain bijliyan to main lahra ke pi gaya

dil kuchh subut-e-hifz-e-shariat na de saka
saqi ke lutf-e-khas pe itra ke pi gaya
