Phir baDha josh-e-junun surat-e-sailab mujhe

phir baDha josh-e-junun surat-e-sailab mujhe
phir kahin gharq na kar de koi girdab mujhe

main wo hun aap jo ho apni tabahi ka sabab
kar gai kasrat-e-girya meri gharqab mujhe

chashm mein ashk KHalish dil mein jigar mein Tisen
uf ye kya chiz kiya karti hai betab mujhe

meri ummid mein hai yas ki surat muzmar
meri hasti hai fana misl-e-KHat-e-ab mujhe

nichi nazren hon zaban band ho ghairon ko salam
un ki mahfil ke to aaenge na aadab mujhe

soz-e-furqat tapish-e-gham ke sabab muddat se
KHwab kya aarzu-e-KHwab hui KHwab mujhe

shumi-e-baKHt se tang aa ke jo dariya mein gira
mauj ne phenk diya la ke lab-e-ab mujhe

kitna dil-soz hai 'talib' tera afsana-e-gham
wo to wo ghair nazar aate hain betab mujhe
