ham ahl-e-nazara sham-o-sahar ankhon ko fidya karte hain ham jalva jalva kahte hain vo parda parda karte hain ai naseh

harim-e-dil se nikal aankh ke sarab men aa miri tarah kabhi maidan-e-iztirab men aa payambaron ki zabani kahi suni ham

us ne kyuun sab se juda meri pazirai ki maslahat-kosh thi har baat shanasai ki zakhm-e-dil ham ne sajae to

shauq-e-varafta chala shahr-e-tamasha ki taraf badh gae ham bhi hisar-e-husn-e-laila ki taraf ham se maujen kah rahi thiin aa miri

hamari tishna-labi ab subu se khelegi fughan-e-dil rag-e-jan-o-gulu se khelegi sambhal ke rahna ki is baar saiqal-e-abru koi baiid nahin

vo jo husn-e-kul ki dalil tha vo khayal aa ke saja gaya ladin yuun nigah se bijliyan koi jaise parde

kab se maang rahe hain tum se saghar se miina se khum se ham bhi kuchh kuchh khoe hue hain

andaz-e-numu kaisa alamnak nikala paivand-e-badan mera sar-e-khak nikala us ne dil-e-be-kaif ko bimar samajh kar darman ke liye nashtar-e-saffak nikala

khul gaya khalvat-e-tanhai ka qissa ai hai chal gaya shahr men afvah ka sikka ai hai qumri-o-tuti-o-bulbul hain jise dekh

tire shahr-e-amn ka kya kahen ki har ik makan juda sa hai hain daron pe qufl lage hue sar-e-taq diip
