Kab mera nasheman ahl-e-chaman Gulshan main gawara kertay hain

 Kab mera nasheman ahl-e-chaman
Gulshan main gawara kertay hain,
Ghunchay apni awaazon main
Bijli ko pukara kartay hain,




Pooncho na araq rukhsaaron say
Rangeeni-e-husn ko barhnay do,
Suntay hain kay shabnam kay Qatray
Phoolon ko nikhaara kartay hain,




Ab nazah ka aalam hai mujh par
Tum apni muhabbat wapis lo,
Jab kashti doobnay lagti hai
Toh bojh utaara kartay hain,




Jaati hoi maiyat daikh kay bhi
Lillah tum uth kar aa na sakay,
Do chaar qadam toh dushman bhi
Taqleef gawarah kartay hain,




Taaron ki bahaaron main bhi
Qamar tum afsurdah say rehtay ho,
Phoolon ko toh daikho kaanto'n main
Hans hans kay guzara kartay hain....
