sukun-e-dil abhi laun kahan se
mujhe fursat nahin aah-o-fughan se

bahut hai kahish-e-dard-e-mohabbat
hamein kya wasta aish-e-jahan se

na puchho majra-e-shauq hum se
kahin laghzish na ho jae zaban se

karam un ka tere haal-e-zabun par
magar ye baat bahar hai guman se

abhi shar aur aafat to hai baqi
sharafat uth gai lekin jahan se

nasihat bazm-e-waiz mein hui thi
adab sikha magar bazm-e-butan se

khabar hai un ko harf-e-muddaa ki
bhala hum kyon kahen apni zaban se

hai kaisi raushni sahn-e-chaman mein
giri hai barq shayad aasman se

na bar aai tamanna dil ki 'nasir'
uthe hum na-muradana jahan se
