jo bhī sūkhe gul kitāboñ meñ mile achchhe lage
hoñ vo lamhe yā bashar chhūTe hue achchhe lage
barg-o-gul pe to hameñ shabnam baḌī achchhī lagī
ashk lekin kab tire ruḳhsār pe achchhe lage
dilkashī thī unsiyat thī yā mohabbat yā junūn
sab marāhil tujh se jo mansūb the achchhe lage
kāġhzī kashtī kā rishta ḳhuub hai 'ālok' se
jhūThe jitne bhī the va.ade aap ke achchhe lage
