Kabhu na us ruKH-e-raushan pe chhaiyan dekhin

kabhu na us ruKH-e-raushan pe chhaiyan dekhin
ghaTaen chand pe sau bar chhaiyan dekhin

fatadgi mein jo izzat hai sar-kashi mein kahan
ki naqsh-e-pa ki yahan rah-numaiyan dekhin

balaen lewe hai hathon se us ki zulfon ki
ye dast-e-shana ki hum ne rasaiyan dekhin

chaman mein naKHun-e-har-barg-e-gul se bulbul ki
hazar rang se uqda-kushaiyan dekhin

zaban-e-tesha bahut kaam aai ai farhad
jo ishq ne teri zor-azmaiyan dekhin

nazar mein apni wo phirti hain suraten haihat
falak ne KHak mein kya kya milaiyan dekhin

kisu ne li na KHabar gharq-e-bahr-e-ulfat ki
in aashnaon ki ye aashnaiyan dekhin

hamari us ki kudurat ki wajh kuchh na rahi
ki aaine ne dilon ki safaiyan dekhin

hum apna tujh ko hawa-KHwah jaante the saba
bahaaren tu ne bhi tanha uDaiyan dekhin

bayan kis se karun apni tira-baKHti ka
andheri raaten wo ai dil phir aaiyan dekhin

'nasir' kije wafa kab talak ba-qaul-e-'mir'
jafaen dekh liyan bewafaiyan dekhin
