dili chingariyon se jab koi shoala jawan hoga
khamoshi chikh utthegi aur insan be-zaban hoga

kabhi tum bhi to diwar-e-ana ko tod kar dekho
mohabbat ke siwa kuchh bhi na apne darmiyan hoga

mizaj-e-waqt mein yaksaniyat dekhi kabhi tum ne
khafa hai aaj jis par kal usi par mehrban hoga

koi hoga mafad us ka yaqinan tum se wabasta
amir-e-shahr kya yun hi kisi par mehrban hoga

hamare qafile ki gar yahi haalat rahi to kal
na gard-e-karwan hogi na shor-karwan hoga

'nisar' apne sukhan mein tajraba hai zindagani ka
hamare dard ka ehsas lahje se bayan hoga
