aa jaaen ham nazar jo koi dam bahut hai yaan
mohlat hamen bisan-e-sharar kam bahut hai yaan
yak lahza sina-kubi se fursat hamen nahin
yaani ki dil ke jaane ka matam bahut hai yaan
hasil hai kya soe tarai ke dahr men
uth asman tale se ki shabnam bahut hai yaan
maail ba-ghair hona tujh abru ka aib hai
thi zor ye kaman vale kham cham bahut hai yaan
ham rah-ravan-e-rah-e-fana der rah chuke
vaqfa bisan-e-subh koi dam bahut hai yaan
us but-kade men maani ka kis se karen saval
aadam nahin hai surat-e-adam bahut hai yaan
aalam men log milne ki gon ab nahin rahe
har-chand aisa-vaisa to aalam bahut hai yaan
vaisa chaman se saada nikalta nahin koi
rangini ek or kham-o-cham bahut hai yaan
ejaz-e-isvi se nahin bahs ishq men
teri hi baat jan-e-mujassam bahut hai yaan
mere halak karne ka gham hai abas tumhen
tum shaad zindagani karo gham bahut hai yaan
dil mat laga rukh-e-araq-alud yaar se
aine ko utha ki zamin nam bahut hai yaan
shayad ki kaam subh tak apna khinche na ‘mir’
ahval aaj shaam se dirham bahut hai yaan
