kaam ab koi na aaega bas ek dil ke siwa

 

ek subh hai jo hui nahin hai

 

main jahan tumko bulata hun wahan tak aao

 

masti-e-rindana hum sairabi-e-mai-KHana hum

 

shaikast-e-shauq ko takmil-e-arzu kahiye

 

ab aa gaya hai jahan mein to muskuraata ja

 

KHirad walo junun walon ke viranon mein aa jao

 

aae hum ghaalib-o-iqbaal ke naghmat ke baad

 

wo meri dost wo hamdard wo gham-KHwar aankhen

 

aandhiyan chalti rahen aflak tharraate rahe

 

wahi hai wahshat wahi hai nafrat aaKHir is ka kya hai sabab

 

dil ki aag jawani ke ruKHsaron ko dahkae hai

 

zulm ki kuchh miad nahin hai

 

taKHliq pe fitrat ki guzarta hai guman aur

 

uljhe kanTon se ki khele gul-e-tar se pahle

 

ishq ka naghma junun ke saz par gate hain hum

 

subh har ujale pe raat ka guman kyun hai

 

sitaron ke payam aae bahaaron ke salam aae

 

wufur-e-shauq ki rangin hikayaten mat puchh

 

ye be-kas-o-be-qarar chehre

 

itr-e-firdaus-e-jawan mein ye basae hue honT

 

aqide bujh rahe hain sham-e-jaan gul hoti jati hai

 

aqide bujh rahe hain sham-e-jaan ghul hoti jati hai

 

farogh-e-dida-o-dil lala-e-sahar ki tarah

 

hum jo mahfil mein teri sina-figar aate hain

 

abhi aur tez kar le sar-e-KHanjar-e-ada ko

 

lu ke mausam mein bahaaron ki hawa mangte hain

 

yaad aae hain ahd-e-junun ke khoe hue dildar bahut

 

baiThe hain jahan saqi paimana-e-zar le kar

 

chashma-e-bad-mast ko phir shewa-e-dil-dari de

 

shaKH-e-gul hai ki ye talwar khinchi hai yaro

 

watan se dur yaran-e-watan ki yaad aati hai

 

kitni aashaon ki lashen sukhen dil ke aangan mein

 

khule hain mashriq-o-maghrib ki god mein gulzar

 

kabhi KHandan kabhi giryan kabhi raqsa chaliye

 

laghzish-e-gam liye laghzish-e-mastana liye

 

KHugar-e-ru-e-KHush-jamal hain hum

 

wahi husn-e-yar mein hai wahi lala-zar mein hai

 

tumhaare eajaz-e-husn ki mere dil pe lakhon inayaten hain

 

farogh-e-dida-o-dil lala-e-sahar ki tarah

 

sard hain dil aatish-e-ru-e-nigaran chahiye

 

mausam-e-rang bhi hai fasl-e-KHizan bhi tari

 

fasl-e-gul fasl-e-KHizan jo bhi ho KHush-dil rahiye

 

shama ka mai ka shafaq-zar ka gulzar ka rang

 

naghma-e-zanjir hai aur shahr-e-yaran in dinon

 

shabon ki zulf ki ru-e-sahar ki KHair manao
