Kabhi KHun hoti hue aur kabhi jalte dekha

kabhi KHun hoti hue aur kabhi jalte dekha
dil ko har bar naya rang badalte dekha

jab ye chaha ki likhen wasf-e-safa-e-ruKH-e-yar
safhe par pa-e-qalam hum ne phisalte dekha

mai mein ye baat kahan jo tere dide mein hai
jis ko dekha ki gira phir na sambhalte dekha

uf re soz-e-dil-e-ashiq ki lahad par us ke
sang-e-marmar sifat-e-barf pighalte dekha

dil ke lene mein ye qudarat use allah na de
jis ko miTTi ke khilaune pe machalte dekha

dil ka kya rang hai tum phir bhi na samjhe afsos
chashma-e-chashm se KHunab ubalte dekha

hai ye saqi ki karamat ki nahin jam ke panw
aur phir bazm mein sab ne use chalte dekha

waiz-o-shaiKH sabhi KHub hain kya batlaun
main ne maiKHane se kis kis ko nikalte dekha

parda kyun karta hai 'nazim' tere ghar aae the
raat ko hum ne unhen bhes badalte dekha
