aaftab ab nahin nikalne ka
āftāb ab nahīñ nikalne kā
daur aayā sharāb Dhalne kā
saañp kahte haiñ zulf ko shā.ir
kaam karte haiñ muñh kuchalne kā
laakh ham chiknī-chupḌī baat kareñ
un kā dil ab nahīñ phisalne kā
sifat-e-lab meñ sher kahte haiñ
ab irāda hai la.al ugalne kā
kūTte haiñ jo apnā ham siina
hai evaz chhātiyāñ masalne kā
kyuuñ na har tarz meñ ho baat na.ī
paañ hai qaabū zabāñ badalne kā
ek bose kī bhī jamā.e ab
qasd hai un ko missī malne kā
naḳhl-e-mātam ke saa.e meñ na Thahar
hai musāfir jo qasd chalne kā
chashm-poshī se tifl-e-ashk apnā
Dhañg sīkhā hai ab machalne kā
hifz-e-tīr-e-nigah hai ain ḳhatā
nahīñ paiġhām maut Talne kā
ham bhī khelā kareñge jaan par ab
shaġhl achchhā hai dil bahalne kā
'mehr' hirbā se dostī tā-chand
ġham nahīñ rañg ke badalne kā
aaftab ab nahin nikalne ka
daur aaya sharab Dhalne ka
sanp kahte hain zulf ko shair
kaam karte hain munh kuchalne ka
lakh hum chikni-chupDi baat karen
un ka dil ab nahin phisalne ka
sifat-e-lab mein sher kahte hain
ab irada hai lal ugalne ka
kuTte hain jo apna hum sina
hai ewaz chhatiyan masalne ka
kyun na har tarz mein ho baat nai
pan hai qabu zaban badalne ka
ek bose ki bhi jamae ab
qasd hai un ko missi malne ka
naKHl-e-matam ke sae mein na Thahar
hai musafir jo qasd chalne ka
chashm-poshi se tifl-e-ashk apna
Dhang sikha hai ab machalne ka
hifz-e-tir-e-nigah hai ain KHata
nahin paigham maut Talne ka
hum bhi khela karenge jaan par ab
shaghl achchha hai dil bahalne ka
'mehr' hirba se dosti ta-chand
gham nahin rang ke badalne ka
