nazakat hai na KHushbu aur na koi dilkashi hi hai
nazākat hai na ḳhushbū aur na koī dilkashī hī hai
guloñ ke saath phir bhī ḳhaar ko rab ne jagah dī hai
kisī kī yaad chupke se chalī aatī hai jab dil meñ
kabhī ghuñghrū se bajte haiñ kabhī talvār chaltī hai
vahī karte haiñ da.avā aag nafrat kī bujhāne kā
ki jin ke haath meñ jaltī huī māchis kī tiilī hai
haTo karne do apne man kī bhī in naujavānoñ ko
ye in kā daur hai in kā samay hai in kī baarī hai
ghuTan taḌpan udāsī ashk rusvā.ī akelā-pan
baġhair in ke adhūrī ishq kī har ik kahānī hai
kabhī bachchoñ ko mil kar khilkhilāte nāchte dekhā
lagā tab zindagī ye ham ne kyā se kyā banā lī hai
utar aa.e haiñ bādal yaad ke āñkhoñ meñ yuuñ 'nīraj'
zamīñ jo kal talak thī ḳhushk ab vo bhīgī bhīgī hai
nazakat hai na KHushbu aur na koi dilkashi hi hai
gulon ke sath phir bhi KHar ko rab ne jagah di hai
kisi ki yaad chupke se chali aati hai jab dil mein
kabhi ghunghru se bajte hain kabhi talwar chalti hai
wahi karte hain dawa aag nafrat ki bujhane ka
ki jin ke hath mein jalti hui machis ki tili hai
haTo karne do apne man ki bhi in naujawanon ko
ye in ka daur hai in ka samay hai in ki bari hai
ghuTan taDpan udasi ashk ruswai akela-pan
baghair in ke adhuri ishq ki har ek kahani hai
kabhi bachchon ko mil kar khilkhilate nachte dekha
laga tab zindagi ye hum ne kya se kya bana li hai
utar aae hain baadal yaad ke aankhon mein yun 'niraj'
zamin jo kal talak thi KHushk ab wo bhigi bhigi hai
