Dekhna uski tajalli ka jise manzur hai

dekhna us ki tajalli ka jise manzur hai
sang-reza bhi nazar mein us ki koh-e-tur hai

hum se ham-chashmi anal-haq ko kahan maqdur hai
ashk har yak-dar mizhgan par mere mansur hai

nahno-aqrab ki nahin hai ramz se tu aashna
warna wo nazdik hai tu aap us se dur hai

hijr ki shab ko agar kaTe to phir hai roz-e-wasl
nish ke parde mein dekha nosh bhi mastur hai

kya hua waiz kare hai shor jun tabl-e-tahi
wo sar-e-be-maghz goya kansa-e-tambur hai

aaj hamein aur hi nazar aata hai kuchh sohbat ka rang
bazm hai maKHmur aur saqi nashe mein chur hai

roz o shab rahta hai teri yaad mein aashiq ka dil
go muqassir hai teri KHidmat se go mazur hai

aarzu hai raat andheri mein ki aawe mah-ru
jis ke aage raushnai shama ki be-nur hai

KHaksaron ko kabhu lata nahin KHatir mein wo
husn ki daulat par apne is qadar maghrur hai

ishq hai darushshifa aur dard hai is ka tabib
jo nahin is maraz ka talib sada ranjur hai

ab talak 'hatim' se to waqif nahin afsos yar
shaeri ke fan mein wo aafaq mein mashhur hai
