ham-nashin teri shikayat se ji darta hai
tere andaza-e-jazbaat se ji darta hai

ahd-e-mazi ki koi baat na dohra ai dost
apne guzre hue lamhat se ji darta hai

ab ke phir mujh se na ho rang-e-bahaaran mayus
apni be-rangi-e-jazbaat se ji darta hai

ai falak mujh pe to ehsan bahut hain tere
han magar teri riwayat se ji darta hai

bhar na den jazba-e-sada mein tamanna ka ye rang
apne rangin khayalat se ji darta hai

jam-o-mina pe bhi pahre hain zaban par bhi muhr
mohtasib teri isi baat se ji darta hai

pahle ayyam basar hote the be-khauf-o-khatar
is zamane mein to din raat se ji darta hai

kal tha raftar-e-jahan se na badalne ka gila
ab badalte hue haalat se ji darta hai

chaunk utthen na sulae hue jazbaat 'nasim'
kale baadal bhari barsat se ji darta hai
