ye silsile bhi rifaqat ke kuchh ajib se hain
ki dur dur ke manzar bahut qarib se hain

qaba-e-zar hai ana ki agarche zeb-e-badan
magar ye ahl-e-hunar dil ke sab gharib se hain

yahan to sab hi ishaaron mein baat karte hain
ajib shahr hai is ke makin ajib se hain

main zindagi mein marungi na jaane kitni bar
mujhe khabar hai ki rishte mere salib se hain

ye aur baat ki us ki chahak se khilta hai
hazar shikwe magar gul ko andalib se hain

use to apni khabar bhi yahan nahin milti
umiden tum ko bahut jis alam-nasib se hain
