Poet
uljha dil-e-sitam-zada zulf-e-butan se aaj
nazil hui bala mire sar par kahan se aaj
tadpunga hijr-e-yar men hai raat chaudhvin
tan chandni men hoga muqabil katan se aaj
do-char rashk-e-mah bhi hamrah chahiyen
vaada hai chandni men kisi mehrban se aaj
hangam-e-vasl radd-o-badal mujh se hai abas
niklega kuchh na kaam nahin aur haan se aaj
qaar-e-badan men ruuh pukari ye vaqt-e-nazaa
muddat ke baad uthte hain ham is makan se aaj
khinchi hai charkh ne bhi kisi maang ki shabih
sabit hui ye baat mujhe kahkashan se aaj
andher tha nigah-e-‘amanat’ men shaam sahar
tum chand ki tarah nikal aae kahan se aaj
