main kis se puchhta ki bhala kya kami hui
tha shor jis gali mein wahan khamushi hui

ek main hi to nahin hun pareshan-o-pur-malal
ai sham tere sath bhi ab ke badi hui

mahfuz kar na paenge diwar-o-baam-o-dar
meri fughan hui ki wo teri hansi hui

diwar-e-jaan gira ke hi niklegi yaad-e-yar
ek mekh jaise dil ke hai andar gadhi hui

khulti hi ja rahi hai giranbari-e-junun
zanjir kya hai panw se mere bandhi hui

ab dekhiye to kya ye wahi chashm hai 'naim'
zambil thi ki khwabon se koi bhari hui
