Aaj to be-sabab udas hai ji

aaj to be-sabab udas hai ji
ishq hota to koi baat bhi thi

jalta phirta hun main dopahron mein
jaane kya chiz kho gai meri

wahin phirta hun main bhi KHak-basar
is bhare shahr mein hai ek gali

chhupta phirta hai ishq duniya se
phailti ja rahi hai ruswai

ham-nashin kya kahun ki wo kya hai
chhoD ye baat nind uDne lagi

aaj to wo bhi kuchh KHamosh sa tha
main ne bhi us se koi baat na ki

ek dam us ke honT chum liye
ye mujhe baiThe baiThe kya sujhi

ek dam us ka hath chhoD diya
jaane kya baat darmiyan aai

tu jo itna udas hai 'nasir'
tujhe kya ho gaya bata to sahi
