Na koi rabt ba-juz KHamushi o nafrat ke

na koi rabt ba-juz KHamushi o nafrat ke
milenge ab to KHulase yahi mohabbat ke

main qaid-e-jism mein ruswa tu qaid mein meri
badan pe dagh liye qaid-e-be-saubat ke

ajib baat gireban pe hath un ka hai
jo tosha-gir-e-tamanna the harf-e-ghairat ke

bas ab to harf-e-nadamat ko sabt-e-daem de
saba-sifat the risale gham-e-mohabbat ke

dua se tazkiya-e-nafas tak safar hai bahut
libas badloge kitne bhi ab zarurat ke

siyah safed ke malik ko farq-e-rang se kya
paDe na us pe bhi sadme kabhi hazimat ke

zamam-e-kar-e-jahan kis ke hath hai ya-rab
badal gae hain taqaze bhi aadmiyat ke

zamana darpa-e-azar hai to kya 'nahid'
bikharte aae hain moti sada mashaqqat ke
