ajab tir-e-nigah mein kuchh asar hai
na bar mein dil na sine mein jigar hai

maal-e-ashiqi kya puchhte ho
jigar ke par har tir-e-nazar hai

wo jaisi subh waisi hi shab-e-hijr
ghazab ki raat aafat ki sahar hai

qafas chhoda ajab surat se hum ne
na bazu hai na gardan hai na sar hai

tumhein kya hum pe jo guzri so guzri
hisab ai jaan hamara hashr par hai

lagi lau shama-san ek shoala-ru ki
bala se sar kate ab kis ko dar hai

gharaz mutlaq nahin mujh ko kisi se
'nasim' apni khuda hi par nazar hai
