ye alag baat hai saaqi ke mujhe hosh nahin

varana main kuchh bhi huun ehasaan-faraamosh nahin



main teri mast-nigaahi ka bharam rakh luunga

hosh aaya bhi to kah duunga mujhe hosh nahin



hangaama hai kyuun barapa thodi si jo pi li hai

daaka to nahin daala chori to nahin ki hai



us may se nahin matalab dil jisase ho begaana

makasuud hai us may se dil hi mein jo khinchati hai



suuraj mein lage dhabba fitarat ke karishme hain

but hamako kahein kaafir allaah ki marzi hai



naatajurbaakaari se vaayiz ki ye baatein hain

is rang ko kya jaane puuchho jo kabhi pi hai



waan dil mein ki sadamein do, yaan ji mein ki sab sah lo

unaka bhi ajab dil hai, mera bhi ajab ji hai



har zarra chamakata hai anawaar-e-ilaahi se

har saans ye kahati hai ham hain to kuda bhi hai



e shauq wahi may pi ai hosh zara so ja

mehamaan-e-nazar is dam ik bark-e-tazali hai
