Pi Liya Karte Hain Jeene Ki Tamanna Mein Kabhi-Kabhi,
Kyonki Dagmagana Bhi Zaroori Hai Sambhalne Ke Liye!
Lutf-E-Mai Tujhse Kya Kahun Zaahid,
Haye Kambakht Tum Ne Pi Hi Nahi!
Main Aur Bazm-E-Mai Se Yun Tishna-Kaam Aaun,
Gar Maine Kee Thi Tauba Saaqi Ko Kyaa Hua Tha!
Abhi Raat Hai Baaki Naa Utha Naqaab Saaki,
Tera Rind Girte Girte Kahin Phir Sambhal Na Jayein!
Aaye The Hanste Khelte Mai-Kane Mein 'Firaq',
Jab Pi Chuke Sharab To Sanjida Ho Gaye!
Ye Kaali Kaali Botlein Jo Hain Sharaab Kee,
Raatein Hain In Mein Band Hamare Shabaab Kee!
Pita Hun Jitni Utni Hi Badhti Hai Tishnagi,
Saqi Ne Jaise Pyaas Mila Di Sharab Mein!
Shikan Na Daal Jabin Par Sharab Dete Hue;
Ye Muskurati Hui Cheez Muskura Ke Pila!
Aaj Pee Lene De Jee Lene De Mujhko Saqi;
Kal Meri Raat Khuda Jaane Kahan Guzregi!
Mehfil-e-Ishq Sajao To Koi Baat Bane;
Daulat-e-Ishq Lutao To Koi Baat Bane;
Jaam Haathon Se Nahi Hai Peena Mujhko;
Kabhi Aankhon Se Pilao To Koi Baat Bane!
