Ab Mir-ji To Achchhe Zindiq Hi Ban BaiThe

ab 'mir'-ji to achchhe zindiq hi ban baiThe

peshani pe de qashqa zunnar pahan baiThe

aazurda dil-e-ulfat hum chupke hi behtar hain

sab ro uThegi majlis jo kar ke suKHan baiThe

uryan phiren kab tak ai kash kahin aa kar

ta gard bayaban ki baala-e-badan baiThe

paikan-e-KHadang us ka yun sine ke udhar hai

jon mar-e-siyah koi kaDhe hue phan baiThe

juz KHat ke KHayal us ke kuchh kaam nahin hum ko

sabzi piye hum aksar rahte hain magan baiThe

shamshir-e-sitam us ki ab go ka chale har-dam

shorida-sar apne se hum bandh kafan baiThe

bas ho to idhar-udhar yun phirne na den tujh ko

na-chaar tere hum ye dekhen hain chalan baiThe
