ah-e-sahar ne sozish-e-dil ko mita diya us baav ne hamen to diya sa bujha diya samjhi na baad subh ki

aj-kal be-qarar hain ham bhi baith ja chalne haar hain ham bhi aan men kuchh hain aan men kuchh hain

aalam men koi dil ka talabgar na paaya is jins ka yaan ham ne kharidar na paaya haq dhundne ka

aam hukm-e-sharab karta huun mohtasib ko kabab karta huun tuk to rah ai bina-e-hasti tu tujh ko kaisa kharab karta

arzuen hazar rakhte hain to bhi ham dil ko maar rakhte hain barq kam-hausla hai ham bhi to dil ko

ab ke bhi sair baagh ki ji men havas rahi apni jagah bahar men kunj-e-qafas rahi main pa-shikasta ja na

ab ‘mir’-ji to achchhe zindiq hi ban baithe peshani pe de qashqa zunnar pahan baithe azurda dil-e-ulfat ham chupke hi

ab nahin siine men mere ja-e-dagh soz-e-dil se daagh hai bala-e-dagh dil jala ankhen jalin ji jal gaya ishq ne

ab zoaf se dhahta hai betabi shitabi ki us dil ke tadapne ne kya khana-kharabi ki un daras-gahon men vo

agar raah men us ki rakha hai gaam gae guzre khizar alaihis-salam dahan yaar ka dekh chup lag gai sukhan
