dard-e-dil roen kis ummid pe begane se

dard-e-dil ro.eñ kis ummīd pe begāne se

sub.h hone kī nahīñ yaas is afsāne se

koī itnā bhī nahīñ aap se ġhībat hī kare

kāñTe paḌte haiñ zabāñ meñ mire afsāne se

dast-e-gustāḳh se mumkin nahīñ ārā.ish-e-husn

gesū-e-yār sañvarne ke nahīñ shāne se

dāman-e-bād-e-bahārī hai garebāñ pe nisār

aatī hai bū-e-mohabbat tire dīvāne se

phir vahī kūcha vahī dar vahī saudā vahī sar

khīñch laayā hai ye dil phir mujhe vīrāne se

aaj hī chhūTe jo kal chhuTtā ho ye dair-e-ḳharāb

vahshat-ābād-e-jahāñ kam nahīñ vīrāne se

havas-e-ālam-e-bālā ne kiyā hai dil tañg

ruuh ghabrā ga.ī ab jism ke kāshāne se

apnī parchhā.īñ se dīvānoñ ko nafrat hī rahī

jīte-jī nikle na zindāñ ke siyah-ḳhāne se

husn-e-ma.anī ke jo shaidā haiñ udhar kyā dekheñ

sūrat-e-ābād jahāñ kam nahīñ vīrāne se

jān-e-man ma.arifat us husn kī āsān nahīñ

daad kyā chāhte ho tum kisī begāne se

kaifiyyat se kabhī ḳhālī nahīñ dil mastoñ kā

hū-ba-hū miltā hai saaqī tire paimāne se

sāqiyā dil kī havas miT na sakī piirī meñ

pyaas bujhtī nahīñ TuuTe hue paimāne se

aag meñ kuud paḌā dil kī lagī vo shai hai

ātish-e-shauq ko pūchhe koī parvāne se

aur parde kī mulāqāt karegī andher

sham.a kyuuñ chhuptī hai fānūs meñ parvāne se

nāsehā hai koī aisā ki sambhāle mujh ko

laḌ ga.ī aañkh mirī phir kisī mastāne se

duur se dekhne ke 'yās' gunahgār haiñ bas

āshnā tak na hue lab kabhī paimāne se

jaam labrez huā hai kisī mahjūr kā aaj

bū-e-ḳhūñ aatī hai saaqī tire paimāne se

pahle sargoshiyāñ thiiñ chhā gayā ab sannāTā

bazm meñ sub.h huī 'yās' ke afsāne se

masnad-e-ātish-e-maġhfūr mubārak ho 'yās'

aa.e sannāTe meñ 'ġhālib' tire afsāne se

dard-e-dil roen kis ummid pe begane se

subh hone ki nahin yas is afsane se

koi itna bhi nahin aap se ghibat hi kare

kanTe paDte hain zaban mein mere afsane se

dast-e-gustaKH se mumkin nahin aaraish-e-husn

gesu-e-yar sanwarne ke nahin shane se

daman-e-baad-e-bahaari hai gareban pe nisar

aati hai bu-e-mohabbat tere diwane se

phir wahi kucha wahi dar wahi sauda wahi sar

khinch laya hai ye dil phir mujhe virane se

aaj hi chhuTe jo kal chhuTta ho ye dair-e-KHarab

wahshat-abaad-e-jahan kam nahin virane se

hawas-e-alam-e-baala ne kiya hai dil tang

ruh ghabra gai ab jism ke kashane se

apni parchhain se diwanon ko nafrat hi rahi

jite-ji nikle na zindan ke siyah-KHane se

husn-e-mani ke jo shaida hain udhar kya dekhen

surat-e-abaad jahan kam nahin virane se

jaan-e-man marifat us husn ki aasan nahin

dad kya chahte ho tum kisi begane se

kaifiyyat se kabhi KHali nahin dil maston ka

hu-ba-hu milta hai saqi tere paimane se

saqiya dil ki hawas miT na saki piri mein

pyas bujhti nahin TuTe hue paimane se

aag mein kud paDa dil ki lagi wo shai hai

aatish-e-shauq ko puchhe koi parwane se

aur parde ki mulaqat karegi andher

shama kyun chhupti hai fanus mein parwane se

naseha hai koi aisa ki sambhaale mujh ko

laD gai aankh meri phir kisi mastane se

dur se dekhne ke 'yas' gunahgar hain bas

aashna tak na hue lab kabhi paimane se

jam labrez hua hai kisi mahjur ka aaj

bu-e-KHun aati hai saqi tere paimane se

pahle sargoshiyan thin chha gaya ab sannaTa

bazm mein subh hui 'yas' ke afsane se

masnad-e-atish-e-maghfur mubarak ho 'yas'

aae sannaTe mein 'ghaalib' tere afsane se
