ye man lene mein aisi bhi kya burai hai
samajh mein der se ek achchhi baat aai hai

diya hai tum ne ba-sad zoam intiha ka nam
jise wo marhala-e-shauq ibtidai hai

hain tujh se badh ke yahan tere sare ham-sae
mere khuda ye teri kaisi kibriyai hai

wo jin ko kar gaya be nur aagahi ka tilism
kahan in aankhon ko phir subah ras aai hai

ba-zid hain wo bhi ki main un hi ki tarah sochun
wo jin se dur ka rishta na aashnai hai

bataun kya use aashob-e-rozgar 'asim'
jo mere waste wajh-e-ghazal-sarai hai
