aqaed vahm hain maz.hab ḳhayal-e-ḳham hai saaqi
azal se zehn-e-insan basta-e-auham hai saaqi
haqiqat-ashnai asl men gum-karda raahi hai
urus-e-agahi parvurda-e-ib.ham hai saaqi
mubarak ho zaifi ko ḳhirad ki falsafa-rani
javani be-niyaz-e-ibrat-e-anjam hai saaqi
havas hogi asir-e-halqa-e-nek-o-bad-e-alam
mohabbat mavara-e-fikr-e-nang-o-nam hai saaqi
abhi tak raste ke pech-o-ḳham se dil dhadakta hai
mira zauq-e-talab shayad abhi tak ḳhaam hai saaqi
vahan bheja gaya huun chaak karne parda-e-shab ko
jahan har sub.h ke daman pe aks-e-sham hai saaqi
mire saghar men mai hai aur tire hathon men barbat hai
vatan ki sar-zamin men bhuuk se kohram hai saaqi
zamana barsar-e-paikar hai pur-haul shoalon se
tire lab par abhi tak naghma-e-ḳhayyam hai saaqi
