wafa ke hain khwan par niwale ze-aab awwal doam ba-atish
bhare hai saqi yahan pyale ze-ab awwal doam ba-atish

chaman mein josh-e-junun ke hain ashk aur dagh-e-darun se apne
karun shagufta gul aur lale ze-ab awwal doam ba-atish

hamare ashk aur aah ki maujen bandh deti hain sab jo duri
bane hain mah-e-falak pe haale ze-ab awwal doam ba-atish

jahan ke sab garm o sard dekhe na zauq hai un mein kuchh na lazzat
do roz chhati yahan pakale ze-ab awwal doam ba-atish

do hukm hain shah-e-ishq ke in mein ek galna hai ek jalna
hain daftar-e-dard mein qabaale ze-ab awwal doam ba-atish

na khol waiz kitab-e-danish ki aatish-e-ishq o aab-e-mai se
dhoun jalaun tere risale ze-ab awwal doam ba-atish

sitam hai aafat hai mahr ya kin bala ye ishq-e-satiza-gar ki
dilon ke khane ujad dale ze-ab awwal doam ba-atish

pade hain hum khun-e-dil mein ghaltan jigar hai dagh-e-jafa se sozan
koi hai apne tain sambhaale ze-ab awwal doam ba-atish

visal ki justuju mein 'hasrat' chala na zari na zor ka kuchh
bahut se yan hum ne dhab nikale ze-ab awwal doam ba-atish
