zindagi ke hasin bahane se
maut milti rahi zamane se

mausam-e-gul khizan-mizaj sahi
mar ke niklenge aashiyane se

ishq ki aag ai maaz-allah
na kabhi dab saki dabane se

razm-e-dair-o-haram se tang aa kar
dil lagaya sharab-khane se

faeda kya hai be-shuuron ko
naghma-e-arzu sunane se

jab zamane ka gham utha na sake
hum hi khud uth gae zamane se
