Poet
andaz nirala hai ada aur hi kuchh hai
ye husn nahin nam-e-ḳhuda aur hi kuchh hai
kahte ho ham ab ghair ko aane nahin dete
ya-rab yahi sach ho pe suna aur hi kuchh hai
parda na rakha tere lab-e-ruh-faza ne
ham jante the ab-e-baqa aur hi kuchh hai
jo main ne kaha tha vo bigaḌne ki na thi baat
kahta huun ki qasid ne kaha aur hi kuchh hai
hamdam yahi janan ki juda.i ka hai rona
kahte hain jise marg vo kya aur hi kuchh hai
iisa se kaho murda-e-sad-sala jila len
bimar-e-mohabbat ki dava aur hi kuchh hai
farhad-e-havas-pesha ne bhi di to sahi jaan
par sheva-e-arbab-e-vafa aur hi kuchh hai
tum husn ki ḳhairat men kya dete ho laao
har-chand tamanna-e-gada aur hi kuchh hai
ham zohd-o-ibadat ke bhi munkir nahin ‘nazim’
par qa.eda-e-faqr-o-fana aur hi kuchh hai
