Kon kehta hai k maut aaye to marjaonga
Main to darya hon, samandar main utar jaonga
Tera dar chor k main or kidher jaonga
Ghar main ghir jaonga, sehra main bikhar jaonga
Tere pehlu se jo uthonga to mushkil ye hai
Sirf ik shaks ko paonga jidher jaonga
Ab tere shehar main aonga, musafir ki tarah
Saya-e-Abar ki manind guzar jaonga
Charah sazon se alag hai mere mayaar k main
Zakhm khaonga to kuch or sanwar jaonga
Zindagi shamma ki manind jalata hon “Nadeem”
Bujh to jaonga magar subha to karjaonga
