ٹھان لی میں نے بھی ساقی ! یہیں مر جانے کی

Thaan li main ne bhi saqi! yahin mar janay ki

Kitni dilkash hain fazayein tere maikhanay ki

Wah kya khoob nishani hai yeh maikhanay ki

Dil mein veer khainchi rehti hai paimanay ki

Sirf gham, khaak ba-sar, chaak girebaan, muztar

Qabil-e-reham hai soorat tere deewanay ki

Chaand badli mein jo dekha to mujhe yaad aaya

Is mein bhi ik jhalak hai tere sharmanay ki

Yaad aati hain kisi ki woh nasheeli aankhein

Dekh kar shakal chhalkte huay paimanay ki

Naza ke waqt mabada koi ilzaam aa jaye

Is ghari aap na takleef karein aane ki

Tu salamat rahay, gulshan ki baharein dekhay

Yeh dua thi dam-e-aakhir tere deewanay ki

Rind-e-badmast ki tauba bhi koi toba hai

Toot jaye gi chhalak dekh ke paimanay ki

Main woh zarra hoon, jo hai mehr-e-ali se roshan

Kis qadar mujh pe inayat mere maula ne ki

Aag ka rizq hai woh sookhta qismat bhi Naseer!

Sham'a tasweer hai jaltay huay parwanay ki
