Aaah jo dil se nikaali jaye gi..

Aaah jo dil se nikaali jaye gi,
Kya samajhte ho ke khaali jaye gi,

Is nazakat pe yeh shamsheer-e-jafa,
Aap se kyun-kar sambhaali jaye gi,

Kya gham-e-duniya ka ddar mujh rind ko,
Aur ek botal charrhaa li jaye gi,

Shaikh ki daawat main mai ka kya kaam,
Ehtiyaatan kuch mangaa li jayegi,

Yad-e-abruu main hai ‘akbar‘ mehvv yuun,
Kab teri yeh kaj-khayaali jaye gi..
