ek qafila hai bin tere ham-rah safar mein
ik qāfila hai bin tire ham-rāh safar meñ
ashk aañkh meñ hai dil meñ hai daaġh aah jigar meñ
ārām mujhe bin tire ik pal nahīñ ghar meñ
juuñ mardumak-e-dīda huuñ din raat safar meñ
phirtā hai vo gul-posh mire dīda-e-tar meñ
hai sho.ala-e-javvāla kī tasvīr bhañvar meñ
sūrāḳh yahāñ sūrat-e-favvāra haiñ sar meñ
dikhlā.ūñ tamāshā jo mujhe chhoḌ de ghar meñ
rashk aa.e na kyuuñ mujh ko ki tū dekh zar-o-sīm
rakhtā hai qadam palla-e-ḳhurshīd-o-qamar meñ
maiñ in dur-e-shahvār ke ashkoñ se idhar aa
taulūñgā biThā kar tujhe hairān nazar meñ
aa dekh na hañs hañs ke rulā mujh ko sitamgar
ik nuuh kā tūfāñ hai mire dīda-e-tar meñ
aks-e-lab-e-pāñ-ḳhurda se dandāñ haiñ tire surḳh
yā ātish-e-yāqūt hai ye āb-e-guhar meñ
baaz aao shikār-afganī se haath uThāo
bhāle ko miyāñ kis liye rakhte ho kamar meñ
rahtī hai baham zulf banā gosh se tere
kuchh farq nahīñ hai sar-e-mū shām-o-sahar meñ
hai is meñ raqam hāl-e-siyah-baḳhtī-e-āshiq
ye naama koī bāñdh do ab zaaġh ke par meñ
ye bhī koī insāf hai ai ḳhāna-ḳharāb aah
auroñ ko to le jaa.e hai tū din diye ghar meñ
aur ham jo haiñ so dekhne ko bhī tire tarseñ
dīvār meñ raḳhna hai na sūrāḳh hai dar meñ
kis vaj.h 'nasīr' us lab-e-shīrīñ pe na ho ḳhaal
hotā vatan-e-mor to hai tañg shakar meñ
ek qafila hai bin tere ham-rah safar mein
ashk aankh mein hai dil mein hai dagh aah jigar mein
aaram mujhe bin tere ek pal nahin ghar mein
jun mardumak-e-dida hun din raat safar mein
phirta hai wo gul-posh mere dida-e-tar mein
hai shoala-e-jawwala ki taswir bhanwar mein
suraKH yahan surat-e-fawwara hain sar mein
dikhlaun tamasha jo mujhe chhoD de ghar mein
rashk aae na kyun mujh ko ki tu dekh zar-o-sim
rakhta hai qadam palla-e-KHurshid-o-qamar mein
main in dur-e-shahwar ke ashkon se idhar aa
taulunga biTha kar tujhe hairan nazar mein
aa dekh na hans hans ke rula mujh ko sitamgar
ek nuh ka tufan hai mere dida-e-tar mein
aks-e-lab-e-pan-KHurda se dandan hain tere surKH
ya aatish-e-yaqut hai ye aab-e-guhar mein
baz aao shikar-afgani se hath uThao
bhaale ko miyan kis liye rakhte ho kamar mein
rahti hai baham zulf bana gosh se tere
kuchh farq nahin hai sar-e-mu sham-o-sahar mein
hai is mein raqam haal-e-siyah-baKHti-e-ashiq
ye nama koi bandh do ab zagh ke par mein
ye bhi koi insaf hai ai KHana-KHarab aah
auron ko to le jae hai tu din diye ghar mein
aur hum jo hain so dekhne ko bhi tere tarsen
diwar mein raKHna hai na suraKH hai dar mein
kis wajh 'nasir' us lab-e-shirin pe na ho KHal
hota watan-e-mor to hai tang shakar mein
