Hum unki nazar mein samane lage

hum un ki nazar mein samane lage
magar jab nazar bhi na aane lage

ye teri suKHan-saziyan hain nadim
kisi par wo kyun rahm khane lage

na di ghair ne dad-e-tarz-e-sitam
sitam-gar ko hum yaad aane lage

na danish durust aur binish baja
dil-o-dida donon Thikane lage

gaya tha ki in ki KHushamad karun
wo ulTa mujhi ko banane lage

kabhi KHair-maqdam kabhi marhaba
zaban par ye alfaz lane lage

kabhi mere qurban hote rahi
kabhi mujh ko pankha hilane lage

kabhi leT kar panw phaila diye
kabhi dekh kar muskurane lage

kiya main ne jab azm-e-bos-o-kanar
to uTh baiThe aur munh chiDhane lage

kahin phir dupaTTa sambhalne laga
kahin aadmi ko bulane lage

KHudaya kiya kis ne un par sitam
ilahi ye kyun ghul machane lage

wo dam mein kab aate the dete the dam
ki samjhun mere dam mein aane lage

wo mahfil mein aaen to 'nazim' zarur
mughanni ye ashaar gane lage
