pahle nazr lab-o-rukhsar karegi duniya
phir tujhe bar-sar-e-paikar karegi duniya

gesu-e-zist ko suljhane mein guzrenge din
mujh se is darja agar pyar karegi duniya

chhod degi tujhe takrane ki khatir aur phir
dar-o-diwar se inkar karegi duniya

mujh ko munsif ke bhi mansab pe karegi faez
jhut se ladne ko tayyar karegi duniya

mujh ko masruf bhi rakkhega koi kar-e-abas
waqt-e-masraf pe ye bekar karegi duniya

gesu-e-zulmat-e-shab mujh ko chhupa le na kahin
is pahle ki giraftar giregi duniya

main talabgar hun jine ka 'nizami' lekin
jaane kab khwab se bedar karegi duniya
