jab wo mujh se kalam karta hai
dhadkanon mein qayam karta hai

lakh tujh se hai ikhtilaf magar
dil tera ehtiram karta hai

din kahin bhi guzar le ye dil
tere kuche mein sham karta hai

hath thama na haal hi puchha
yun bhi koi salam karta hai

wo fusun-kar is qadar hai 'shabi'
baithe baithe ghulam karta hai
