Kaun is raah se guzartaa hai,
dil yuuN hii intizaar kartaa hai,
dekh kar bhii na dekhne vale,
dil tujhe dekh dekh Dartaa hai,
shah’r-e-gul meN gayii hai saarii raat,
dekhiye din kahaaN guzartaa hai,
( shah’r-e-gul : city of flowers)
dhyaan kii siiRhiyoN pe picchle pahar,
ko’ii chupke se paaNv dhartaa hai,
(siiRhiyaaN : stairs)
dil to meraa udaas hai “Nasir”,
shah’r kyuuN saaeN saaeN kartaa hai.
