Delhi, India
maslak-e-ishq bayan kya kije
hamara raaz-dan koi nahin hai
ye wafa mange hai tum se na jafa mange hai
tere qarib bhi dil kuchh bujha sa rahta hai
mere nalon mein itna to asar hai
rang kuchh shoKH se taswir mein bhar kar dekho
ghamon mein Dubi hui hai har ek KHushi meri
parda-e-zehn se saya sa guzar jata hai
zamana guzra hai tufan-e-gham uThae hue
be-tarah aap ki yaadon ne sataya hai mujhe
palkon pe kuchh charagh farozan hue to hain
har dard ke har gham ke talabgar hamin hain
phul jab koi bikharta hai to hans dete hain
haal na puchho roz-o-shab ka koi anokhi baat nahin
lai bahaar shauq ke saman nae nae
