us ke karam se hai na tumhaari nazar se hai
mausam dilon ka dard ke raushan shajar se hai

jis se mere wajud ke pahlu ayan hue
shayad mera moamla us ke hunar se hai

hail hua na koi talluq ki rah mein
daim tamam silsila bint-e-sahar se hai

aaya na wo haram mein imamat ke waste
kuchh rabt hi ajib use apne ghar se hai

apni gali mein nasb hai wo sang-e-be-nawa
kahte hain garche wasta us ko safar se hai

us ke siwa na dil ki hikayat koi padhe
mansub meri dastan ek dida-war se hai

mahsus kis tarah ho mujhe dhup ka azab
'almas' karobar mera baad-e-tar se hai
