yar ibtida-e-ishq se be-zar hi raha
bedard dil ke dar piye aazar hi raha

jis din se dost rakhta hun us ko hijab-e-husn
apna hamesha dushman-e-didar hi raha

ye ishq-e-parda-dar na chhupaya chhupa daregh
sita hamesha main lab-e-izhaar hi raha

qaid-e-farang-e-zulf na kafir ko ho nasib
jo wan phansa hamesha giraftar hi raha

jaan-bakhsh tha jahan ka masiha-e-lab tera
lekin main us ke daur mein bimar hi raha

gar qatl-e-be-gunah tha manzur yar ko
marne pe apne main bhi to tayyar hi raha

dauran-e-lutf main tere ai mubhwis-nawaz
mahrum wasl se ye gunahgar hi raha

'hasrat' hamesha us ki shab-e-intizar mein
jun tala-e-raqib main bedar hi raha
