'nasir' kya kahta phirta hai kuchh na suno to behtar hai
diwana hai diwane ke munh na lago to behtar hai

kal jo tha wo aaj nahin jo aaj hai kal mit jaega
rukhi-sukhi jo mil jae shukr karo to behtar hai

kal ye tab-o-tawan na rahegi thanda ho jaega lahu
nam-e-khuda ho jawan abhi kuchh kar guzro to behtar hai

kya jaane kya rut badle haalat ka koi thik nahin
ab ke safar mein tum bhi hamare sath chalo to behtar hai

kapde badal kar baal bana kar kahan chale ho kis ke liye
raat bahut kali hai 'nasir' ghar mein raho to behtar hai
