Tera qurb hai na baada* hai, kya kiya jaaye, Phir aaj dukh bhi zeyadaa hai, kya kiya jaaye,
Kuch apne dost bhi turkish-badosh phirte hain, Kuch apna dil bhi kushaada hai, kya kiya jaaye,
Na un se tark-e-taluq ki baat kar paayen, Na humdumi ka iraada hai, kya kiya jaaye,
Woh meherbaan hai, magar dil ki hirss* bhi kam to ho, Talab karam se zeyada hai, kya kiya jaaye,
Humain bhi arz-e-tamanna ka dhangg nahin aata, Mizaaj-e-yaar bhi saada hai, kya kiya jaaye,
Salook-e-yaar se dil doobne laga hai Faraz, Magar yeh mehfil-e-aaada hai, kya kiya jaaye..
(baada:libaas, clothes)(hirss:lalach, greed)
