ajab hain surat-e-haalat ab ke
hui barsat mein barsat ab ke

badan mein phul bhi chubhne lage hain
bahut nazuk hain ehsasat ab ke

zara chaukanna chaukanna hun main bhi
hai duniya bhi lagae ghat ab ke

bana dunga tere chehre ka jhumar
laga jo chand mere hath ab ke

lagi hai shart mere aansuon ki
samundar ko milegi mat ab ke

'salim' alfaz bude lag rahe hain
hai aisi shiddat-e-jazbaat ab ke
