dasht-e-afkar mein sukhe hue phulon se mile
kal teri yaad ke matub rasulon se mile

apni hi zat ke sahra mein sulagte hue log
apni parchhain se takrae hayyulon se mile

ganw ki samt chali dhup doshaala odhe
taki baghon mein thithurte hoe phulon se mile

kaun udte hoe rangon ko giraftar kare
kaun aankhon mein utarti hui dhulon se mile

is bhare shahr mein 'nashtar' koi aisa bhi kahan
roz jo sham mein hum jaise fuzulon se mile
