تیرگی میں اک ستارا چاہیئے

Teeragi mein ik sitara chahiye

Mujh ko daagh-e-gham tumhara chahiye

Chashm-e-saqi ka ishara chahiye

Be-sahara hoon, sahara chahiye

Na-khuda! toofan jaane aur tu

Meri kashti ko kinara chahiye

Hum tumhare waaste hain be-qaraar

Paas tum ko bhi hamara chahiye

Khud-shanasi jin ke maslak mein nahi

Aisay logon se kinara chahiye

Jaan se jaana, nahi mardaanagi

Ishq mein jeene ka yaara chahiye

Ab Naseer uth kar na jaye ga kahin

Bas usay to dar tumhara chahiye
