حسن غمزے کی کشاکش سے چھٹا میرے بعد

Husn-e-ghamze ki kashakash se chhuta mere baad

Bare aaram se hain ahl-e-jafa mere baad

Mansab-e-sheftagi ke koi qabil na raha

Hui mazooli-e-andaz-o-ada mere baad

Shama bujhti hai to us mein se dhuan uthta hai

Shola-e-ishq siyah-posh hua mere baad

Khoon hai dil khaak mein ahwal-e-butan par yaani

Un ke nakhun hue mohtaj-e-hina mere baad

Dar-khor-e-arz nahin jauhar-e-bedad ko ja

Nigah-e-naaz hai surme se khafa mere baad

Hai junoon ahl-e-junoon ke liye aaghosh-e-wida

Chak hota hai gareban se juda mere baad

Kaun hota hai harif-e-mai-e-mard-afgan-e-ishq

Hai mukarrar lab-e-saqi pe sala mere baad

Gham se marta hoon ke itna nahin duniya mein koi

Ke kare taziyat-e-mehr-o-wafa mere baad

Aaye hai bikasi-e-ishq pe rona Ghalib

Kis ke ghar jaye ga sailab-e-bala mere baad

Thi nigah meri nihan khana-e-dil ki naqab

Be-khatar jeete hain arbab-e-riya mere baad

Tha main guldasta-e-ahbab ki bandish ki giyah

Mutafarriq hue mere rufqa mere baad
