khair se dil ko teri yaad se kuchh kaam to hai
wasl ki shab na sahi hijr ka hangam to hai

nur-e-aflak se raushan ho shab-e-gham ki na ho
chand taron se mera nama o paigham to hai

kam nahin ai dil-e-betab mata-e-ummid
dast-e-mai-khwar mein khali hi sahi jam to hai

baam-e-khurshid se utre ki na utre koi subh
khema-e-shab mein bahut der se kohram to hai

jo bhi ilzam mere ishq pe aaya ho 'naim'
un se wabasta kisi taur mera nam to hai
