abhi naKHl-e-dil mein khilawaT bahut hai

abhi nakhl-e-dil mein khilawat bahut hai
mujhe ab bhi tum se lagawat bahut hai
na surkhi na ghaza na kajal na gajra
teri sadgi mein sajawat bahut hai


kabhi film-nagri se marub mat ho
ki is mein mukammal banawat bahut hai
badi purkashish guftugu hai zaban par
magar dil mein un ke girawat bahut hai


na sehat banegi na taqat milegi
dawa mein ghiza mein milawat bahut hai
ye ilm aur tahqiq ke mashghalon mein
na mahsus hoti thakawat bahut hai


parae hi badh kar mere kaam aae
ab apnon mein 'nadir' rukawat bahut hai
