mai shhr me ptthr ke hun ik paikre-jj़bat
ai kash! mile koee jo smjhe mere halat
rut mst hai, bhigi hai hwa, chandni hai rat
aa jao tum aise mein liye pyar ki saughat
shmi huee sanson ki thkn, maut ki ghaten
kis mor pe le aaee hai armanon ki barat
bhtke hai bhut ahle-khi़rd1 gliyon mein teri
is trh na hns, de ke junun2 ki hmen saughat
ghbrao na ai grdishe-ayyam3 ke maro
ab gm ke fsane mein hain do char hi s ph़hat4
khoya huaa har shkh़s hai dukh-drd mein apne
aa jaye koee kash liye khushiyon ki barat
ye tlkhi-e-halat stati hai 'knwl’ jab
yad aate hai mazi5 ke mhkte huye lmhat6
