baat kuchh ham se ban na aaee aaj
bol kar ham ne munh kee khaee aaj
chup par apanee bharam the kya kya kuchh
baat bigadee banee banaee aaj
shikava karane kee khoo na thee apanee
par tabeeat hee kuchh bhar aaee aaj
bazm saaqee ne dee ulat saaree
khoob bhar bhar ke khum lundhaee aaj
maasiyat par hai der se ya rab
nafs aur shara mein ladaee aaj
gaalib aata hai nafs-e-doon ya shar
dekhanee hai tiree khudaee aaj
chor hai dil mein kuchh na kuchh yaaro
neend phir raat bhar na aaee aaj
zad se ulfat kee bach ke chalana tha
muft ‘haalee’ ne chot khaee aaj
