tark un se rasm-o-rah-e-mulaqat ho gai
yun mil gae kahin to koi baat ho gai
dil tha udas aalam-e-ghurbat ki sham thi
kya waqt tha ki tum se mulaqat ho gai
ye dasht-e-haul-KHez ye manzil ki dhun ye shauq
ye bhi KHabar nahin ki kahan raat ho gai
rasm-e-jahan na chhuT saki tark-e-ishq se
jab mil gae to pursish-e-haalat ho gai
KHu bu rahi sahi thi jo mujh mein KHulus ki
ab wo bhi nazr-e-rasm-e-inayat ho gai
dilchasp hai 'salim' hikayat teri magar
ab so bhi ja ki yar bahut raat ho gai
Ghazal
Tark un se rasm-o-rah-e-mulaqat ho gai
