jaane walon ke liye tu aur kya le jaega
dekh le duniya jahan tak rasta le jaega

khwahish-e-guftar rah jaegi phir zer-e-zaban
izn to de dega lekin hausla le jaega

gunj ban kar laut jaegi meri fariyaad bhi
shab ka sannata kahan meri sada le jaega

dil se mit jaega ek din dekhne milne ka shauq
jitne manzar hain wo aankhon mein saja le jaega

lutf phir aaega kya sayyahi-e-dil mein 'nasim'
is khandar se jo milega wo utha le jaega
