    ik raat meñ sau baar jalā aur bujhā huuñ

    muflis diyā huuñ magar āñdhī se laḌā huuñ

    jo kahnā ho kahiye ki abhī jaag rahā huuñ

    so.ūñgā to so jā.ūñgā din bhar thakā huuñ

    qindīl samajh kar koī sar kaaT na le aa.e

    tājir huuñ ujāle añdhere meñ khaḌā huuñ

    sab ek nazar pheñk ke baḌh jaate haiñ aage

    maiñ vaqt ke show-case meñ chup-chāp khaḌā huuñ

    vo aa.ina huuñ jo kabhī kamre meñ sajā thā

    ab gir ke jo TuuTā huuñ to raste meñ paḌā huuñ

    duniyā koī hādsa ḳhālī nahīñ mujh se

    maiñ ḳhaak huuñ maiñ aag huuñ paanī huuñ havā huuñ

    mil jā.ūñgā dariyā meñ to ho jā.ūñgā dariyā

    sirf is liye qatra huuñ ki dariyā se judā huuñ

    har daur ne baḳhshī mujhe me.arāj-e-mohabbat

    neze pe chaḌhā huuñ kabhī suulī pe chaḌhā huuñ

    duniyā se nirālī hai 'nazīr' apnī kahānī

    añgāroñ se bach niklā huuñ phūloñ se jalā huuñ

    ek raat mein sau bar jala aur bujha hun

    muflis ka diya hun magar aandhi se laDa hun

    jo kahna ho kahiye ki abhi jag raha hun

    sounga to so jaunga din bhar ka thaka hun

    qindil samajh kar koi sar kaT na le aae

    tajir hun ujale ka andhere mein khaDa hun

    sab ek nazar phenk ke baDh jate hain aage

    main waqt ke show-case mein chup-chap khaDa hun

    wo aaina hun jo kabhi kamre mein saja tha

    ab gir ke jo TuTa hun to raste mein paDa hun

    duniya ka koi hadsa KHali nahin mujh se

    main KHak hun main aag hun pani hun hawa hun

    mil jaunga dariya mein to ho jaunga dariya

    sirf is liye qatra hun ki dariya se juda hun

    har daur ne baKHshi mujhe mearaj-e-mohabbat

    neze pe chaDha hun kabhi suli pe chaDha hun

    duniya se nirali hai 'nazir' apni kahani

    angaron se bach nikla hun phulon se jala hun
