Dil mein ek lehar si uthi hai abhi

Dil mein ek lehar si uthi hai abhi.

Koi taza hava chali hai abhi.

Shor barpa hai Khana-e-dil mein;

Koi divar si giri hai abhi.

Kuchh to nazuk mizaj hain ham bhi;

Aur ye choT bhi nayi hai abhi.

Bhari duniya mein ji nahien lagta;

jaane kis cheez ki kami hai abhi.

Tu shareek-e-suKhan nahien hai to kya;

Ham-suKhan teri Khaamoshi hai abhi.

Yaad ke be-nishaan jazeeroon se;

Teri aavaz aa rahi hai abhi.

Shehar ki be-chiraaGh galiyoon mein;

Zindagi tujh ko DhuunDhti hai abhi.

So gaye loug us haveli ke;

Ek khiRki magar khuli hai abhi.

Tum to yaro abhi se uTh baiThe;

Shehar mein raat jagti hai abhi.

Vaqt achha bhi aayega 'Nasir';

Gham na kar zindagi paRi hai abhi.
