shab-e-visaal mein he he vo un kaa sharmaa kar — Meer Mohammad Sultan Aaqil

phiki hai teri nasihat saath mere ghul machaa
shor se naaseh namak aa jaaegaa taqrir mein

gaaliyaan diin us ne be-ginti hamein
ham ne bose bhi to gin gin ke liye

ilaahi tu bhi pyaaraa but bhi pyaaraa phir sunun kis ki
idhar kuchh shaikh kahtaa hai aur us jaanib barahman bhi

asal mein jalva ye kis kaa hai tu hi kah vaaiz
teraa rab aur sahi meraa sanam aur sahi

pechidgi-e-taba ki ye saaf hai dalil
maani ulajh ke rah gae un ke kalaam mein

aisi duniyaa mein kab tak guzaaraa karein tum hi kah do ki kaise gavaaraa karein
raat mujh se miri bebasi ne kahaa bebasi ke liye ek taaza ghazal

shor din ko nahin sone detaa
shab ko sannaaTaa jagaa detaa hai

har ek shaakh pe viraaniyaan musallat hain
badan-darakht bhi goyaa hai aashiyaan-e-shab

roz ik khvaab-e-musalsal aur main
raat bhar yaadon kaa jangal aur main

log kahte hain raat biit chuki
mujh ko samjhaao! main sharaabi huun

Dhal gai vasl ki shab Duub gayaa dil kaa charaagh
ab vahin baiThe rahein aap jahaan the baiThe
