is dil ko ham-kanar kiya hum ne kya kiya
dushman ko dost-dar kiya hum ne kya kiya

rahta yahi hai dil mein shash-o-panj-e-yar se
aaina kyun do-chaar kiya hum ne kya kiya

mutthi bharam ki ghuncha-sifat is chaman mein khol
asrar aashkar kiya hum ne kya kiya

dar-parda dosti hui hum apne haq mein aah
mutrib-pisar ko yar kiya hum ne kya kiya

islam bhi ba-jabr tha ai shaikh-o-barhaman
kyun jabr ikhtiyar kiya hum ne kya kiya

tasbih to padi thi gale ek dusri
zunnar ko bhi haar kiya hum ne kya kiya

dil ko dukha ke chin-e-jabin-e-pari-washan
jun barq be-qarar kiya hum ne kya kiya

kahne laga wo qabr pe aashiq ki kyun guzar
sahwan sar-e-mazar kiya hum ne kya kiya

haihat aashna the jo mauj-e-bala ke pech
un ka na intizar kiya hum ne kya kiya

bahr-e-jahan se dida-o-danista jun hubab
ba-chashm-e-tar guzar kiya hum ne kya kiya

dasht-e-junun se tod ke rishte ko jeb ke
daman bhi tar kiya hum ne kya kiya

us sarw-qad ke ishq mein ye phal mila 'nasir'
har sad aah war kiya hum ne kya kiya
