wo gul hain na un ki wo hansi hai
dekho jidhar us si padi hai

kyun sog ki rasm jite-ji hai
marne ki hamare kya kahi hai

aadi haikal ko chum legi
wo chiz jo kuchh uthi uthi hai

dawat thi raqib ki mere ghar
juti mein dal kya bati hai

aaya dabe panw qabr par kaun
koi nahin meri bekasi hai

ek waza par ab khuda nibahe
tauba kar ke sharab pi hai

waiz hai kharab khwahish-e-khuld
bilkul ye shakhs jannati hai

kuchh phut padi hai ghunghruon mein
chhagal kuchh un ki kah rahi hai

majbur farishta hai badi ka
pahle hi se kuchh kahi badi hai

paiwasta nahin mera lab-e-shauq
tere lab par teri hansi hai

ab kaun kalim ban ke aaya
phir tur par aag si lagi hai

hai aankh mein aankh kaun dale
koi nahin teri aarsi hai

kaisa pina kahan ki tauba
ab main hun khuda hai be-khudi hai

khush hoge 'riyaz' se bhi milna
kya bagh-o-bahaar aadmi hai
