phir uThī aaj vo nigāh-e-nāz
ik na.e daur kā huā āġhāz

har haqīqat hai ā.īna phir bhī
zarra zarra hai ik jahān-e-rāz

lab-e-shā.er pe giit raqsāñ haiñ
rūh-e-fitrat hai gosh-bar-āvāz

merī ḳhāmoshiyoñ ke aalam meñ
guuñj uThtī hai aap kī āvāz

koī aalam nahīñ qayām-pazīr
lamha lamha hai mā.il-e-parvāz

'naqsh' ham ahl-e-dil ne dekhe haiñ
manzil-e-ishq ke nasheb-o-farāz

phir uThi aaj wo nigah-e-naz
ek nae daur ka hua aaghaz

har haqiqat hai aaina phir bhi
zarra zarra hai ek jahan-e-raaz

lab-e-shaer pe git raqsan hain
ruh-e-fitrat hai gosh-bar-awaz

meri KHamoshiyon ke aalam mein
gunj uThti hai aap ki aawaz

koi aalam nahin qayam-pazir
lamha lamha hai mail-e-parwaz

'naqsh' hum ahl-e-dil ne dekhe hain
manzil-e-ishq ke nasheb-o-faraaz
