khar-o-gul ka faisla hone ko hai
nazm-e-gulshan ab naya hone ko hai

zakhm phir bharne ko aae hain nadim
koi taza hadsa hone ko hai

khair-maqdam ki mere tayyariyan
ab haram bhi mai-kada hone ko hai

khairiyat guzre baruz-e-ehtisab
un ka mera samna hone ko hai

aashiyan se dur tutin bijliyan
ab 'nisha' be-asra hone ko hai
