charagh zulmat-e-be-nur mein jalana tera
charāġh zulmat-e-be-nūr meñ jalānā tirā
pasand aayā na logoñ ko āstāna tirā
yūñhī guzāroge tum arsa-e-hayāt agar
na hogā ek bhī pal koī jāvedāna tirā
bahut qarīb se maiñ tujh ko jāntā huuñ miyāñ
har ek ḳhuub samajhtā huuñ maiñ bahāna tirā
hameñ banāoge jis vaqt lashkarī apnā
ḳhatā na hogā kisī taur bhī nishāna tirā
na koī tujh ko bachā.egā qatl hone se
paḌheñge log janāza bhī ġhā.ebāna tirā
na degā koī bhī mushkil ghaḌī meñ saath tirā
agarche aaj ye girvīda hai zamāna tirā
sivā.e ek kafan ke na kuchh milegā tujhe
kisī bhī kaam na aa.egā ye ḳhazāna tirā
ise badalnā hai ik roz ḳhaak meñ āḳhir
sajā ke rakkhegā jo bhī nigār-ḳhāna tirā
'nabīl' is ke sivā aur kyā diyā tum ne
hamārī piiTh hai aur dost tāziyāna tirā
charagh zulmat-e-be-nur mein jalana tera
pasand aaya na logon ko aastana tera
yunhi guzaroge tum arsa-e-hayat agar
na hoga ek bhi pal koi jawedana tera
bahut qarib se main tujh ko jaanta hun miyan
har ek KHub samajhta hun main bahana tera
hamein banaoge jis waqt lashkari apna
KHata na hoga kisi taur bhi nishana tera
na koi tujh ko bachaega qatl hone se
paDhenge log janaza bhi ghaebana tera
na dega koi bhi mushkil ghaDi mein sath tera
agarche aaj ye girwida hai zamana tera
siwae ek kafan ke na kuchh milega tujhe
kisi bhi kaam na aaega ye KHazana tera
ise badalna hai ek roz KHak mein aaKHir
saja ke rakkhega jo bhi nigar-KHana tera
'nabil' is ke siwa aur kya diya tum ne
hamari piTh hai aur dost taziyana tera
