gar mere baithne se vo azar khinchte
to apne dar ki aa ke vo divar khinchte
naaz o ada o ghamza se yuun dil liya mira
le jaaen jaise mast ko hushyar khinchte
va hasrata hui unhen aane ki tab khabar
laae jab us gali men mujhe yaar khinchte
aaega un ke kahne se vo gul yahan talak
kanton pe kyuun hain ab mujhe aghyar khinchte
vaan shauq jaliyon ka hai us jama-zeb ko
yaan apne pairahan se hain ham taar khinchte
tegh-e-nigah-e-yar uchatti lagi hai phir
barson guzar gae mujhe azar khinchte
kahte hain shab vo kahte the aata hai ji ghuta
naale jo ham rahe pas-e-divar khinchte
azurda un ko dekhte hi jaan nikal gai
vo dekh mujh ko rah gae talvar khinchte
taskin’ ka chaak chaak hua dil jo shane ko
dekha kisi ka turra-e-tarrar khinchte
