Maqaame ibrat yeh zindagi hai

Maqaame ibrat yeh zindagi hai

Hai shams ko bhi zawaal aata

Bana to lun mein ik nasheman

Hai bekhudi ka khayaal aata

Mein chaahun tujhko umr bhar yun

Hai ek mann mein sawaal aata

Sukoon hai gar deedaar tera

Hai kyun ragon mein ubaal aata

Daba hun teri mein qurbaton mein

Hai kiski warna majaal aata

Yeh kaun hai jo cheene tujhko

Hai yeh kahan se shughaal aata

Jo maan leti tu baat meri

Sukoon na warna bahaal aata

Kabhi toh ispe tu ghor kar le

Hai kyun yun mujhko jalaal aata

Labon ki junbish pe jung thehri

Hai jab bhi waqte visaal aata

Kabhi toh dekho haan ulfaton se

Hai kya kya mujhko kamaal aata

Kabhi jo aaye haan koi uljhan

Hai aashiq behad fu-aal aata

Kaise aata hai pyaar tujhpe

Hai misle aabe zalaal aata

Shumaar tera hai zaahidon mein

Hai kaise raahe zalaal aata

Bhool ja sab gham yeh ASIM

Hai mausamon pe jamaal aata!
