ahsen chhiDi hui hain hayat o mamat ki
sau baat ban gai hai 'firaq' ek baat ki

aae the hanste khelte mai-KHane mein 'firaq'
jab pi chuke sharab to sanjida ho gae

we came to the tavern all gay and frolicsome
now having drunk the wine, somber have become

Firaq Gorakhpuri

ahut hasin hai doshizgi-e-husn magar
ab aa gae ho to aao tumhein KHarab karen

Firaq Gorakhpuri

ahut pahle se un qadmon ki aahaT jaan lete hain
tujhe ai zindagi hum dur se pahchan lete hain

Firaq Gorakhpuri

chhalak ke kam na ho aisi koi sharab nahin
nigah-e-nargis-e-rana tera jawab nahin

Firaq Gorakhpuri

dekh raftar-e-inqalab 'firaq'
kitni aahista aur kitni tez

Firaq Gorakhpuri

---

dewtaon ka KHuda se hoga kaam
aadmi ko aadmi darkar hai

Firaq Gorakhpuri

---

dil-dukhe roe hain shayad is jagah ai ku-e-dost
KHak ka itna chamak jaana zara dushwar tha

Firaq Gorakhpuri

ek muddat se teri yaad bhi aai na hamein
aur hum bhul gae hon tujhe aisa bhi nahin
