bhule kab lazzat asiri ki chaman ko dekh kar
yaad aati hai hamein ghurbat watan ko dekh kar

haq-ba-jaanib hai hamare to ki aaine mein wo
bosa le leta hai aap apne dahan ko dekh kar

sunghne wale tumhaari zulf-e-ambar-fam ke
hote hain chin-bar-jabin mushk-e-khutan ko dekh kar

ji mein hai ab be-sutun mein ja ke roun khub main
naqsh-e-shirin-o-mazar-e-kohkan ko dekh kar

wo sahi baala jo gul yaad aa gaya gul-gasht mein
lag gai hichki mujhe sarw-e-chaman ko dekh kar

mat kiya kar aashiqon ki khak ko yun paemal
rasm-e-ishq uth jaegi tere chalan ko dekh kar

tira-rozi yan talak to hai par ab khati hai rashk
sham-e-ghurbat hai meri subh-e-watan ko dekh kar

gul gareban chaak karte hain chaman mein rashk se
bar mein shabnam ke tumhaare pairahan ko dekh kar

qasd karta hun ham-aghoshi ka lekin roz-e-wasl
ji nikal jata hai us nazuk badan ko dekh kar

chahchahe karne gae sab bhul ab khamosh hain
murgh-e-gulshan mere andaz-e-sukhan ko dekh kar

us se milne ko to 'nami' mana hum karte nahin
dijiyo lekin dil us paiman-shikan ko dekh kar
