ashk aankhon mein Dar se la na sake
ashk āñkhoñ meñ Dar se lā na sake
dil kī bhaḌkī huī bujhā na sake
na hilī jab zabāñ nazākat se
rah ga.e dekh kar bulā na sake
thiiñ jo us meñ hayā kī kuchh bāteñ
shikva merā vo lab pe lā na sake
kyā hue tere hausle ai ashk
harf-e-taqdīr ko miTā na sake
thā ye ḳhatra kahīñ pasand na hoñ
gāliyāñ bhī mujhe sunā na sake
go bahut pās-e-ġhair thā lekin
aañkh ham se bhī vo churā na sake
paañv chūmā kiye hinā kī tarah
jab koī aur rañg lā na sake
ḳhāmushī thī ba-shakl-e-zaḳhm mujhe
lab tak apne savāl aa na sake
na malī us ne paañv meñ mehñdī
rañg apnā adū jamā na sake
iztirāb-e-qazā huā ye 'nasīm'
ki gale bhī use lagā na sake
ashk aankhon mein Dar se la na sake
dil ki bhaDki hui bujha na sake
na hili jab zaban nazakat se
rah gae dekh kar bula na sake
thin jo us mein haya ki kuchh baaten
shikwa mera wo lab pe la na sake
kya hue tere hausle ai ashk
harf-e-taqdir ko miTa na sake
tha ye KHatra kahin pasand na hon
galiyan bhi mujhe suna na sake
go bahut pas-e-ghair tha lekin
aankh hum se bhi wo chura na sake
panw chuma kiye hina ki tarah
jab koi aur rang la na sake
KHamushi thi ba-shakl-e-zaKHm mujhe
lab tak apne sawal aa na sake
na mali us ne panw mein mehndi
rang apna adu jama na sake
iztirab-e-qaza hua ye 'nasim'
ki gale bhi use laga na sake
