kya ho gaya hai dil ko jo yuñ cheekhta hai ye
aawaaz roz roz kise de raha hai ye
duniya sharaab zehar ise naam kuchh bhi de
par ham to jaante hain ghamon kii davaa hai ye
jaañ ko meri qaraar bhi juz ranj-o-gham kahaan
ab koii mas'ala na raha mas'ala hai ye
ham se nigaah fer ke jaana huzoor ka
phir shartiya naya koii tarz-e-jafa hai ye
bhaaga kare udhar ki jidhar raasta nahin
dil ko kahein bhi kya ki kahaan maanta hai ye
ab aur chhediye na mere dil ko dekhiye
pahle hi zaar zaar lahu ro chuka hai ye
ik baar muntazir jo lagaaya zabaan se
phir umr bhar na jaayega kaisa nasha hai ye
