Nafs kay loch main rum hi nahin , kuch aur bhi hai

Nafs kay loch main rum hi nahin , kuch aur bhi hai 

Hayat , saghar sam hi nahin , kuch aur bhi hai 

Teri nigah meray gham ki paas'daar sahi 

Meri nigah main gham hi nahin , kuch aur bhi hai 

Meri nadeem mohabbat ki rif'aton se na guzar 

Buland bam-e-haram hi nahin , kuch aur bhi hai 

Yeh ijtinaab hai aks shaoor-e-mehboobi 

Yeh ehtiyat sitam hi nahin kuch aur bhi hai 

Idher bhi aik achat'ti nazar keh duniya main 

Farogh-e-mehfil jam hi nahin , kuch aur bhi hai 

Naye jahan basaye hain fikar-e-aadam ne 

Ab is zameen pe iram hi nahin , kuch aur bhi hai 

Her qadam marhala-e-daar-o-saleeb aaj bhi hai

Her qadam marhala-e-daar-o-saleeb aaj bhi hai 

Jo kabhi tha wohi insaan ka naseeb aaj bhi hai 

Jag'magatay hain ufaq par yeh sitaray lakin 

Raasta-e-manzil hasti ka moheeb aaj bhi hai 

Sar-e-maqtal jinhein jana tha woh jaa bhi ponchay 

Sar-e-manzil koi mohtaat khateeb aaj bhi hai 

Ehal-e-daanish ne jissay amar-e-mu'sanam jana 

Ehal-e-dil kay liye woh baat ajeeb aaj bhi hai 

Teri yaad hai ya meri aziyat koshi 

Aik nashtar sa rag-e-jaan kay qareeb aaj bhi hai  

Kon janay yeh tera shair aashafta mizaaj 

Kitnay maghroor khudaon ka raqeeb aaj bhi hai 

Hawas naseeb nazar ko kahin qaraar nahin

Hawas naseeb nazar ko kahin qaraar nahin 

Main muntazir hoon magar tera intizaar nahin 

Hum hi se rang-e-gulistan Hum hi se rang-e-bahar 

Hum hi ko nazam-e-gulistan pe ikhtayar nahin 

Abhi na chairr mohabbat kay geet ae mutrab 

Abhi hayat ka mahol khush'gawar nahin 

Tumharay ehad-e-wafa ko main ehad kya samjhon 

Mujhay khud apni mohabbat pe Aitabar nahin 

Na janay kitnay gilay is main muztarib hain Nadeem 

Woh aik dil jo kisi ka gila guzar nahin 

Gu'raiz ka nahin qatil hayat se lakin !

Jo sach kahon keh mujhay mout na'gawar nahin 

Yeh kis maqam pe poncha diya zamanay ne 

Keh ab hayat pe tera bhi ikhtiyar nahin 

Yeh zameen jis qadar sajai gayi

Yeh zameen jis qadar sajai gayi 

Zindagi ki tarap barhaai gayi 

Aainay se bigar kar baith gaye 

Jin ki surat jinhein dikhai gayi 

Dushmano hi se bair nibh jaye 

Doston se to aashnai gayi 

Nasal dar nasal intizaar raha 

Qasar tootay na be'nawai gayi 

Zindagi ka naseeb kya kehiye 

Aik seeta thi ji satai gayi 

Hum na otaar thay na paighambar 

Kiyon yeh azmat hamein dilaai gayi 

Mout paai saleeb par hum ne 

Umar ban baas main bitaai gayi
