Naaz E begaangi meN kya kuchh tha
Husn ki saadgi meN kya kuchh tha

Laakh raahaiN thiN laakh jalwe the
Ahd E aawaargi meN kya kuchh tha

AaNkh khulte hi chhup gayi har shai
Aalam E be-khudi meN kya kuchh tha

Yaad haiN marhalay muhabbat  ke
Haye us be-kali meN kya kuchh tha

Kitne beete dinoN ki yaad aayee
Aaj teri kami meN kya kuchh tha

Kitne manoos log yaad aaye
Subh ki chaNdni meN kya kuchh tha

Raat bhar ham na so sake ‘Nasir’
Parda E khaamushi meN kya kuchh tha
