Nazren milin charagh jale raushni hui

nazren milin charagh jale raushni hui
lau de uThi phir apni tabiat bujhi hui

KHun-e-jigar se nikhre KHad-o-KHal-e-arzu
dil ke lahu se shaKH-e-tamanna hari hui

ab subh-e-nau-bahaar ki kya aarzu karen
ek shaKH-e-ashiyan hai so wo bhi jali hui

phir yaad aa gain shab-e-hijran ki talKHiyan
dil ko kabhi KHushi jo ghaDi-do-ghaDi hui

bhaDka diya use tere do din ke pyar ne
ek umr se jo aag thi dil mein dabi hui

dil hi to ek dair-o-haram ka charagh tha
dil bujh gaya to phir na kahin raushni hui

duniya ba-juz tilism-e-nazar aur kuchh nahin
KHud ko diye fareb agar aagahi hui

wo chand-raat tera bichhaDna nazar mein hai
is ghar mein tere baad kahan raushni hui

is KHud-fareb dil ne wo ruswa kiya hamein
hum apne ho sake na teri bandagi hui

aabaad jis se thin meri tanhaiyan 'kalim'
nazron mein hai wo mahfil-e-yaran saji hui
