koi mausam na kabhi kar saka shadab hamein
shahr mein jine ke aae nahin aadab hamein
bahte dariya mein koi aks Thaharta hi nahin
yaad aata hai bahut ganw ka talab hamein
is tarah pyas bujhai hai kahan dariya ne
ek qatre ne kiya jis tarah sairab hamein
jhilmili raushni har-samt nazar aati hai
khinchti hai koi qindil tah-e-ab hamein
kya pata kaun se janmon ka hai rishta apna
DhunD hi lete hain har bahr mein girdab hamein
din ulaT deta hai har KHwab ki tabir magar
raat dikhlati hai phir koi naya KHwab hamein
be-aman hum jo hue hain to hamein yaad aaya
rose dete the sada mimbar-o-mehrab hamein
kash malum ye pahle hamein hota 'alam'
dekhna chahta tha wo bhi zafar-yab hamein
Ghazal
Koi mausam na kabhi kar saka shadab hamein
