Dil-jalon se dil-lagi achchhi nahin

dil-jalon se dil-lagi achchhi nahin
rone walon se hansi achchhi nahin

munh banata hai bura kyun waqt-e-waz
aaj waiz tu ne pi achchhi nahin

zulf-e-yar itna na rakh dil se lagao
dosti nadan ki achchhi nahin

but-kade se mai-kada achchha mera
be-KHudi achchhi KHudi achchhi nahin

muflison ki zindagi ka zikr kya
muflisi ki maut bhi achchhi nahin

is qadar khenchti hai kyun ai zulf-e-yar
le ke dil itni kaji achchhi nahin

aaen meri bazm-e-matam mein wo kya
hath mein meinhdi rachi achchhi nahin

shaiKH ko de do mai-e-be-rang-o-bu
us ki qismat se khinchi achchhi nahin

ek hasin ho dil ke bahlane ko roz
roz ki ye dil-lagi achchhi nahin

zarra zarra aaftab-e-hashr hai
hashr achchha wo gali achchhi nahin

ahl-e-mahshar se na uljho tum 'riyaz'
hashr mein diwangi achchhi nahin
