kasid key aatey aatey ...

kasid k aae aate khat ek aur likh rakhoon

main jaanta hoon jo woh likhenge jawaab main...

kab se hoon kya bataoon jahane kharaab main

kab se hoon kya bataoon jahane kharaab main

shab haye hijre ko bhi rakhoon gar hisaab main

mujhe tak kab unki basm main aata tha daur jaam

sakid kuch milaa na diye woh sharaab main

tafir na intazaar main neend aaye umrr bhar

aaneka ahed kar gayi aaye jo khwaab main

ghalib chutiii sharraab par ab bhiii kabhi kabhiii

ghalib chutiii sharraab par ab bhiii kabhi kabhiii

peta hoon roz abrosh-shabi mahataab main

shab haye hijre ko bhi rakhoon gar hisaab main

mohabbat main nahi hay, fark jeene, aur marne ka

mohabbat main nahi hay, fark jeene, aur marne ka

use ko dekh kar jeete jis kafir pe dam nikle

hazaroon khwashishen aisi ke har khwahish pe dam nikle,

bahut nikle mere armaan lekin fir bhi kam nikle ...

khuda ke vaaste parda na kavi se utha zalim

khuda ke vaaste parda na kavi se utha zalim

kahi aisa na hoo yaha bhi wohi kafir sanam nikle

kaha mainkhane ka darwaza ghalib aur kaha waiz

kaha mainkhane ka darwaza ghalib aur kaha waiz

par itna jaanti hai kal woh jaata tha k ham nikle

hazaroon khwashishen aisi ke har khwahish pe dam nikle,

bahut nikle mere armaan lekin fir bhi kam nikle ...
