ye maslahat-andesh karam yaad rahega
saqi teri nazron ka bharam yaad rahega

gham yaad rahega na alam yaad rahega
ek hasil-e-gham rabt-e-baham yaad rahega

but-khane ki azmat ka pata jis se mila hai
wo hadisa-e-dair-o-haram yaad rahega

hai ahl-e-mohabbat ke liye kaba-e-maqsad
wo shokh tarahdar sanam yaad rahega

us aankh mein aansu the ki paigham-e-tabahi
ehsas-e-gunahgari-e-gham yaad rahega

us shokh ki nazron ko na bhulegi ye mahfil
mera dil-e-diwana hi kam yaad rahega

be-mehri-e-dildar bhula sakta hai lekin
'basit' ko wafaon ka bharam yaad rahega
