Chaahiye achchho’n ko jitanaa chaahiye
ye agar chaahe’n to phir kyaa chaahiye

sohabat-e-rindaa se vaajib hai hazar
jaa-e-mai apane ko khenchaa chaahiye

chaahane ko tere kyaa samajhaa thaa dil
baare ab is se bhii samajhaa chaahiye

chaak mat kar jeb be ayyaam-e-gul
kuchh udhar kaa bhii ishaaraa chaahiye

dostii kaa pardaa hai begaanagii
mu.nh chhupaanaa ham se chhodaa chaahiye

dushmanii mein merii khoyaa ghair ko
kis qadar dushman hai dekhaa chaahiye

apanii rusvaaii mein kyaa chalatii hai sai
yaar hii hangaamaa aaraa chaahiye

munhasir marane pe ho jis kii umiid
naaumiidii us kii dekhaa chaahiye

Ghaafil in mah talaaton ke vaaste
chaahane vaalaa bhii achchhaa chaahiye

chaahate hain khuubaruon ko Asad
aap kii surat to dekhaa chaahiye
