محفل کا یہ انداز ، کہاں وہ ہیں ، کہاں میں

Mehfil ka yeh andaaz, kahan woh hain, kahan main

Duniya ko khabar hogi, jo kholoon ga zubaan mein

Chaaho to hum aahang karoon dil se zubaan mein

Kuch arz karoon, jaan ki paaon jo amaan mein

Haalaat-e-gham-e-ishq, nahi zikr ke qabil

Suntay hain agar aap, to karta hoon bayaan mein

Zarray ko bhi khursheed se nisbat sahi, phir bhi

Sach baat magar yeh hai, kahan aap, kahan main

Bhoolay se bhi angrai ab aati nahi mujh ko

Ae chashm-e-zamana! kabhi hota tha jawaan mein

Sunta hoon bari dair se saqi ki burai

Ab kheenchon ga waaiz! teri gaddi se zubaan mein

Saaye ki tarah saath nazar aaon ga, sarkaar!

Jana hai kahan mujh ko, jahan aap, wahan main

Ab khud hi Naseer uth ke chala jaon to acha

Is anjuman-e-naaz mein hoon baar-e-garaan, main
