Ishq hi tanha nahin shorida-sar mere liye

ishq hi tanha nahin shorida-sar mere liye
husn bhi betab hai aur kis qadar mere liye

han mubarak ab hai mearaj-e-nazar mere liye
jis qadar wo dur-tar nazdik-tar mere liye

khel hai bazicha-e-sham-o-sahar mere liye
do gul-e-bazi hain ye shams o qamar mere liye

waqf hai sayyaad ki ek ek nazar mere liye
han mubarak ye shikast-e-baal-o-par mere liye

garm hai hangama-e-sham-o-sahar mere liye
raat din gardish mein hain shams o qamar mere liye

main hun wahshi aah kis sahra-e-afat-KHez ka
hai gul-e-virana bhi begana-tar mere liye

us maqam-e-ishq mein hun marhaba ai be-KHudi
zarra zarra hai jahan garm-e-safar mere liye

jazb ho kar rah gaya hun main jamal-e-dost mein
ishq hai tabinda-tar painda-tar mere liye

main nahin kahta ki main hun tu ho teri KHalwaten
han magar sab se juda KHas ek nazar mere liye

allah allah main bhi kya nazuk-dimagh-e-ishq hun
nikhat-e-gul bhi hai wajh-e-dard-e-sar mere liye

phir bhi aankhen DhunDhti hain ek sarapa naz ko
main ne mana kuchh nahin hadd-e-nazar mere liye

rah-raw-e-rah-e-talab ko KHizr ki hajat nahin
zarra zarra hai charagh-e-rah-guzar mere liye

apne dil mein juz tere main bhi sama sakta nahin
mera har har sans hai zanjir-e-dar mere liye

mujh ko jannat hi jo duniya hai to ya-rab baKHsh de
bas yahi daman-e-tar chashman-e-tar mere liye

tark-e-mai se aur bhi main to sharabi ban gaya
roz aa jata hai mina-e-sahar mere liye

jis ne zahid se bhi kafir ke uDa Dale hain hosh
us se bhi kuchh aur saqi tez-tar mere liye

wo mera saghar-ba-kaf hona pashemani ke sath
abr-e-rahmat ka wo uThna jhum kar mere liye

kal shab-e-mahtab mein ek bulbul-e-afat-nawa
markaz-e-gham ban raha tha raat bhar mere liye

na-gahan lab-ha-e-barg-e-gul se ye aai nida
nale karta hai abas ai be-KHabar mere liye

main bhi hun apni jagah KHunin-jigar KHunin-kafan
tu na apni jaan kho ai musht-e-par mere liye

bas ye sunna tha ki pa-e-gul pe gir kar mar miTa
ban gaya ek naqsh-e-ibrat umr bhar mere liye

zindagi ek tohmat-e-beja hai meri zat par
maut ek ilzam-e-na-jaez 'jigar' mere liye

main to har haalat mein KHush hun lekin us ka kya ilaj
DabDaba aati hain wo aankhen 'jigar' mere liye
