asir-e-ishq hain aur waza aazadana rakhte hain
asīr-e-ishq haiñ aur vaz.a āzādāna rakhte haiñ
ham apnī zindagī afsāna-dar-afsāna rakhte haiñ
ḳhudā-ma.alūm aisī kyā kashish hai un kī mahfil meñ
ki ahl-e-dil qadam us samt betābāna rakhte haiñ
na ham taqlīd karte haiñ kabhī farhād-o-vāmiq kī
na apnī mamlikat meñ qais kā vīrāna rakhte haiñ
hameñ nisbat hai baade se hamārā naam hai 'sāqī'
nahīñ mai-kash magar haañ shaġhl kuchh rozāna rakhte haiñ
asir-e-ishq hain aur waza aazadana rakhte hain
hum apni zindagi afsana-dar-afsana rakhte hain
KHuda-malum aisi kya kashish hai un ki mahfil mein
ki ahl-e-dil qadam us samt betabana rakhte hain
na hum taqlid karte hain kabhi farhad-o-wamiq ki
na apni mamlikat mein qais ka virana rakhte hain
hamein nisbat hai baade se hamara nam hai 'saqi'
nahin mai-kash magar han shaghl kuchh rozana rakhte hain
