من ہیچ نمی ترسم از حادثۂ شب ہا

English title: In the accidents of night

Translations
من ہیچ نمی ترسم از حادثۂ شب ہاشبہا کہ سحر گردد از گردش کوکب ہا
نشناخت مقام خویش افتاد بدام خویشعشقی کہ نمودی خواست از شورش یارب ہا
آہی کہ ز دل خیزد از بہر جگر سوزی استدر سینہ شکن او را آلودہ مکن لب ہا
در میکدہ باقی نیست از ساقی فطرت خواہآن می کہ نمی گنجد در شیشۂ مشرب ہا
آسودہ نمی گردد آندل کہ گسست از دوستبا قرأت مسجد ہا با دانش مکتب ہا
