dil ki barbaadi ka rona ai gham-e-nakaam kya
is tarah dard-e-mohabbat ko karen badnam kya

dushman-e-jaan ban gai khud-agahi warna bhala
mera rishta rok sakti shorish-e-ayyam kya

lazzat-e-mizhgan shuur-e-gham ka darman ban gai
warna apna hausla kya mai-kashi kya jam kya

khud to ranga-rang taswiren banain aap ne
mere sar dharte hain phir ye aap hi ilzam kya

karwan-e-dahr ko manzil-ba-manzil dekh aae
'nazish'-e-badnam apni subh kya aur sham kya
