qarz-e-nigah-e-yar ada kar chuke hain hum

aae kuchh abr kuchh sharab aae

yun saja chand ki jhalka tere andaz ka rang

hum sada hi aise the ki yun hi pazirai

chashm-e-maigun zara idhar kar de

shaiKH sahab se rasm-o-rah na ki

sharh-e-firaq madh-e-lab-e-mushkbu karen

ye mausam-e-gul garche tarab-KHez bahut hai

hum musafir yunhi masruf-e-safar jaenge

aaj yun mauj-dar-mauj gham tham gaya is tarah gham-zadon ko qarar aa gaya

wahin hain dil ke qarain tamam kahte hain

ab wahi harf-e-junun sab ki zaban Thahri hai

kis shahr na shohra hua nadani-e-dil ka

kab tak dil ki KHair manaen kab tak rah dikhlaoge

sahal yun rah-e-zindagi ki hai
