Kisi ko day k dil koi nawa sanj-e-Fughan kyun ho,
Na ho jab dil hi seenay mein toh fir munh mein zaban kyun ho...
Woh apni khu na chhoren gay hum apni wazah kyun chhoren,
Subuk sir ban k kya poochay hain k hum say sir girann kyun ho...
Wafa kaisi kahan ka ishq jab sir phhorna thehra,
Toh fir ay sung dil tera hi sung-e-Astann kyun ho...
Qaffus mein mujh say roodad-e-Chaman kehtay na dar humdum
Giri hai jis pay kal bijlee, woh mera aashiyan kyun ho...
Yeh keh saktay ho, hum dil mein nahein hain per yeh to batlao,
K jab dil mein tumhein tum ho toh aankhon say nihan kyun ho...
Yeh fitnah aadmi key khana veerani ko kya kum hai,
Huay tum dost jis k dushan us ka aasman kyun ho...
Yahee hai aazmana, toh fir satana kis ko kehtay hain,
Adoo k ho liyeh jab tum mera imtehan kyun ho...
Kaha tumn nay k kyun ho ghair k milnay mein ruswayi,
Bja kehtay ho, Such kehtay ho, Fir kahiyoh k han kyun ho...
Nikala chahta hai kaam kya ta'anon say tu Ghalib!
Teray bay-mehar kehnay say woh tujh per meharbann kyun ho.
Na ho jab dil hi seenay mein toh fir munh mein zaban kyun ho...
Woh apni khu na chhoren gay hum apni wazah kyun chhoren,
Subuk sir ban k kya poochay hain k hum say sir girann kyun ho...
Wafa kaisi kahan ka ishq jab sir phhorna thehra,
Toh fir ay sung dil tera hi sung-e-Astann kyun ho...
Qaffus mein mujh say roodad-e-Chaman kehtay na dar humdum
Giri hai jis pay kal bijlee, woh mera aashiyan kyun ho...
Yeh keh saktay ho, hum dil mein nahein hain per yeh to batlao,
K jab dil mein tumhein tum ho toh aankhon say nihan kyun ho...
Yeh fitnah aadmi key khana veerani ko kya kum hai,
Huay tum dost jis k dushan us ka aasman kyun ho...
Yahee hai aazmana, toh fir satana kis ko kehtay hain,
Adoo k ho liyeh jab tum mera imtehan kyun ho...
