ye ishq agar aisa pur-asrar na hota
mansur kabhi koi sar-e-dar na hota

zanjir-zani hoti na har sans mein meri
dil dard ka aise jo alam-dar na hota

phir chand nahin karta kabhi ashk-fishani
gar tute sitaron ka azadar na hota

kuchh rishton ko main sath kabhi rakh nahin pati
mujh mein jo agar koi adakar na hota

is dil mein tera aks farozan nahin rahta
gar shisha mere dil ka chamakdar na hota

main khud ko kai bar bana leti abhi tak
gar lams mujhe tera ye darkar na hota

gar us pe tera bhed khula hota ai saqi
phir shaikh ko mai-khane se inkar na hota

phir khak maza deta barasta hua sawan
is rut mein agar hijr ka aazar na hota

sad-shukr ki aibon pe mere parda pada hai
kya hota agar mera wo sattar na hota

har chand ki patthar hun magar tut rahi hun
ai kash tu patthar ka talabgar na hota
