pichhle ko uTh khaḌā na ho dard-e-jigar kahīñ

pahuñche na uḌte uḌte kahīñ se ḳhabar kahīñ

kaifiyyat-e-hayāt se ḳhālī huā hai dil

o sāqī-e-azal mirā paimāna bhar kahīñ

mar jā.eñge taḌap ke asīrān-e-bad-nasīb

sun pā.eñge jo muzda-e-vahshat-asar kahīñ

phaḌkā kiye muraqqa-e-ālam ke husn par

Thahrī kabhī na ahl-e-havas kī nazar kahīñ

āḳhir hijāb-o-sharm kī had bhī hai mehrbāñ

parda ulaT na de mirī āh-e-sahar kahīñ

din vāda-e-visāl kā nazdīk aa chukā

phir der kyā hai 'yās' are kambaḳht mar kahīñ
