Jis Ka Rahib Shaikh Ho But-Khana Aisa Chahiye

jis ka rahib shaikh ho but-khana aisa chahiye

mohtasib saaqi bane mai-khana aisa chahiye

rakhta hai sar-khush hamen ek chashm-e-maigun ka khayal

ho na jo paiman-shikan paimana aisa chahiye

ho khayal-e-dair dil men aur na ho pas-e-haram

ashiqon ka maslak-e-rindana aisa chahiye

ik nigah-e-naz par qurban kare hosh-o-khirad

ishq-bazi ke liye farzana aisa chahiye

is ke dil men soz ho aur us ke dil men ho gudaz

shama aisi chahiye parvana aisa chahiye

shama saan ghulte rahen ham aur na ho us ko lagan

‘mashriqi’ maashuq be-parvana aisa chahiye
