tera kucha na chhutega tere diwane se
is ko ka'be se na matlab hai na but-khane se

jo kaha main ne karo kuchh mere rone ka khayal
hans ke bole mujhe fursat hi nahin gane se

khair chup rahiye maza hi na mila bose ka
main bhi be-lutf hua aap ke jhunjhlane se

main jo kahta hun ki marta hun to farmate hain
kar-e-duniya na rukega tere mar jaane se

raunaq-e-‘ishq badha deti hai betabi-e-dil
husn ki shan fuzun hoti hai sharmane se

dil-e-sad-chaak se khul jaenge hasti ke ye pech
bal nikal jaenge is zulf ke is shane se

safha-e-dahr pe hain naqsh-e-mukhalif 'akbar'
ek ubharta hai yahan ek ke mit jaane se
