mera dayar shanasa-e-rang-o-nur nahin
agarche shams-o-qamar is nagar se dur nahin

jamal-o-paikar-o-andam ki ghataen hain
kisi bhi dil pe tajalli-e-koh-e-tur nahin

khuda se ishq ki pahli hasin nishani hai
wo ek namaz ki jis mein khayal-e-hur nahin

hijab-e-mahmil-e-laila ko tu utha na saka
ki teri aankh mein didar ka shuur nahin

nisab-e-nab-e-husaini meri tamanna hai
khitab-e-waiz-o-darwesh mein surur nahin

kusha-e-raaz aza-e-husain kaise ho
tumhaare qalb mein rasikh mera zabur nahin

gham-e-husain mein rota hai la nahin kahta
wo jis ka jism adu ke tabar se chur nahin

charagh ban ke andheri ruton mein jalta hun
siwae is ke mera aur kuchh qusur nahin

tulu-e-nur hai 'naqqash' sher-e-agahi
ai wa-e-bakht isi sher ko zuhur nahin
