Ajib tarz-e-mulaqat ab k bar rahi
tumhin the badle hue ya meri nigahen thin
tumhari nazron se lagta tha jaise meri bajaye
tumhare ghar main koi aur shakhs aya hai
tumhare ohad ki denen tumhen mubarak
so tum ne mera swagat usi tarah se kiya
jo afsaran-e-hukumat k aitaqad main hai
takallufan mere nazdik a k baith gaye
phir ehtamam se mausam ka zikr cher diya
kuch us k bad siyasat ki bat bhi nikli
adab par bhi koi do char tabsare faramaye
magar na tum ne hamesha ki tarah ye pucha
kya waqt kaisa guzarta hai tera jan-e-hayat
pahar din ki aziyat main kitni shiddat hai
ujar rat ki tanhai kya qayamat hai
shabon ki sust rawi ka tujhe bhi shikwa hai
gam-e-firaq k qisse nishat-e-wasl ka zikr
rawayatan hi sahi koi bat to karte
