Subah bhi waise hee rukh pe lipti huyi zulfein thi
raat chaand kuchh aise hee baadalon se khel reha tha

Alfazo mein wo baat kehan ki byaan kar sakein
phir bta kar apni chahat ki tauheen kyun karein

Nawazish ki jarurat nahi koi unko btlaaye jaakar
unke khush hone mein meri khudgarzi shamil hai

Uske lafzo ki kuch yu aadat ho gayi hai Shail
ab to khwabon mein bhi unse guftugu hoti hai

Shayad talafuzz ka fark tha tere mere beech shail
pyar nahi hai mujhse aisa tune kabhi keha to nahi

Jaane kyun log meri shayri ka sabab puchhte hain Shail
gham aur bhi hote hain iss jehan mein muhabbat ke siva

Iss kadar chha jaaunga tere dilo dimaag pe Shail
tum kuchh bhi bologe...awaaz meri hogi...
