gunahgar to rahmat ko munh dikha na saka
gunāhgār to rahmat ko muñh dikhā na sakā
jo be-gunāh thā vo bhī nazar milā na sakā
tarab hai sheva-e-rindān-e-āqibat-nā-shanās
jo gul na thā vo gulistāñ meñ muskurā na sakā
bahut ḳhafīf thī kaun-o-makāñ kī jalvagarī
mirī nigāh kā gosha bhī jagmagā na sakā
havāla-e-nigah-e-sharamgīñ huiiñ āḳhir
vo bijliyāñ jo kahīñ āsmāñ girā na sakā
badī.a-kār hai zehn-e-ḳhirad-pasand magar
tasavvurāt se tasvīr-e-ġham banā na sakā
ajab nahīñ ki gulistāñ meñ pā-ba-gil rah jaa.e
vo bad-nasīb jo ramz-e-ḳhirām pā na sakā
jiyā vo paak jo rakhtā thā ḳhār-e-pairāhan
jo gul ba-jaib thā dāman kabhī bachā na sakā
'nushūr' nāzukī-e-tab-e-sher kyā kahiye
jahāñ meñ rah ke zamāne ke naaz uThā na sakā
gunahgar to rahmat ko munh dikha na saka
jo be-gunah tha wo bhi nazar mila na saka
tarab hai shewa-e-rindan-e-aqibat-na-shanas
jo gul na tha wo gulistan mein muskura na saka
bahut KHafif thi kaun-o-makan ki jalwagari
meri nigah ka gosha bhi jagmaga na saka
hawala-e-nigah-e-sharamgin huin aaKHir
wo bijliyan jo kahin aasman gira na saka
badia-kar hai zehn-e-KHirad-pasand magar
tasawwuraat se taswir-e-gham bana na saka
ajab nahin ki gulistan mein pa-ba-gil rah jae
wo bad-nasib jo ramz-e-KHiram pa na saka
jiya wo pak jo rakhta tha KHar-e-pairahan
jo gul ba-jaib tha daman kabhi bacha na saka
'nushur' nazuki-e-tab-e-sher kya kahiye
jahan mein rah ke zamane ke naz uTha na saka
