husn ke sehr o karamat se ji darta hai
ishq ki zinda riwayat se ji darta hai

main ne mana ki mujhe un se mohabbat na rahi
ham-nashin phir bhi mulaqat se ji darta hai

sach to ye ki abhi dil ko sukun hai lekin
apne aawara khayalat se ji darta hai

itna roya hun gham-e-dost zara sa hans kar
muskuraate hue lamhat se ji darta hai

jo bhi kahna hai kaho saf shikayat hi sahi
in ishaaraat-o-kinayat se ji darta hai

hijr ka dard nai baat nahin hai lekin
din wo guzra hai ki ab raat se ji darta hai

kaun bhula hai 'naim' un ki mohabbat ka fareb
phir bhi in taza inayat se ji darta hai
