aise wo dastan khinchta hai
har yaqin par guman khinchta hai

teri furqat ka ek ek lamha
jism se meri jaan khinchta hai

jab bhi main aasman ko chhune lagun
panw ko mehrban khinchta hai

manzil-e-zist ke kisi bhi taraf
apni jaanib nishan khinchta hai

main haqiqat jahan bhi likhta hun
wo wahi dastan khinchta hai

jab haqiqat bayan karun us ki
mere munh se zaban khinchta hai

sar-zamin-e-watan pe ab wo 'nabil'
apna har su makan khinchta hai
