kahte hain sun ke tazkire mujh gham-rasida ke
kahte haiñ sun ke tazkire mujh ġham-rasīda ke
afsāne kaun suntā hai hāl-e-shunīda ke
kyā apnī musht-e-ḳhāk kī ham justujū kareñ
milte nahīñ nishān ġhubār-e-parīda ke
maiñ ḳhaak bhī huā na ga.ī par kashīdgī
ġhusse vahī rahe mire dāman-kashīda ke
jo tum meñ baat hai vo kisī aur meñ kahāñ
jalve kuchh aur hī haiñ gul-e-nau-damīda ke
sailāb-e-chashm-e-tar se zamāna ḳharāb hai
shikve kahāñ kahāñ haiñ mire āb-dīda ke
kuchh intihā nahīñ hai kahāñ tak sunā.iye
qisse darāz haiñ dil-e-nā-ārmīda ke
qatre mile jo tere pasīne ke gul-badan
ḳhvāhāñ rahe na log gulāb-e-chakīda ke
aahoñ kī dhuum hai kahīñ nāloñ ke gulgule
sāmāñ na.e haiñ roz tire ġham-kashīda ke
ārām-gāh-e-ashk hai vīrān ai junūñ
dāman haiñ taar taar qabā-e-darīda ke
o mast-e-nāz kaif ye tere suḳhan meñ hai
dhoke kalām par haiñ sharāb-e-chakīda ke
lo āshiyān-e-tan kī taraf mel tak nahīñ
dekho mizāj tā.ir-e-rañg-parīda ke
dīvāñ meñ vasf hai araq-e-jism-e-yār kā
mazmūñ kahāñ kahāñ haiñ gulāb-e-chakīda ke
mizhgāñ se bach 'nasīm' ki abrū ke paas haiñ
ye tīr-e-be-ḳhatā haiñ kamān-e-kashīda ke
kahte hain sun ke tazkire mujh gham-rasida ke
afsane kaun sunta hai haal-e-shunida ke
kya apni musht-e-KHak ki hum justuju karen
milte nahin nishan ghubar-e-parida ke
main KHak bhi hua na gai par kashidgi
ghusse wahi rahe mere daman-kashida ke
jo tum mein baat hai wo kisi aur mein kahan
jalwe kuchh aur hi hain gul-e-nau-damida ke
sailab-e-chashm-e-tar se zamana KHarab hai
shikwe kahan kahan hain mere aab-dida ke
kuchh intiha nahin hai kahan tak sunaiye
qisse daraaz hain dil-e-na-armida ke
qatre mile jo tere pasine ke gul-badan
KHwahan rahe na log gulab-e-chakida ke
aahon ki dhum hai kahin nalon ke gulgule
saman nae hain roz tere gham-kashida ke
aaram-gah-e-ashk hai viran ai junun
daman hain tar tar qaba-e-darida ke
o mast-e-naz kaif ye tere suKHan mein hai
dhoke kalam par hain sharab-e-chakida ke
lo aashiyan-e-tan ki taraf mel tak nahin
dekho mizaj tair-e-rang-parida ke
diwan mein wasf hai araq-e-jism-e-yar ka
mazmun kahan kahan hain gulab-e-chakida ke
mizhgan se bach 'nasim' ki abru ke pas hain
ye tir-e-be-KHata hain kaman-e-kashida ke
