un ko phir be-naqab kaun kare
dil ki duniya kharab kaun kare

shauq-e-izhaar-e-arzu hi nahin
dagh-e-gham ka hisab kaun kare

nigah-e-intikhab shahid hai
himmat-e-intikhab kaun kare

bazm mein wo to muntazir hain mere
bazm mein baryab kaun kare

dekhte hain wo mast nazron se
yaad jam-e-sharab kaun kare

tab-e-guftar hi nahin baqi
shikwa-e-iztirab kaun kare

dil hai nakaam-e-arzu 'nayyar'
ab ise kaamyab kaun kare
