Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan
dasht-e-junun mein aabla-pa le gaya mujhe
jaan-e-gulshan jo hue wo gul-e-tar dekhe hain
baghair samt hua hun main dar-ba-dar kaisa
hum jo bichhDe hain to aankhon ko bhigote hi rahe
han mahfil-e-yaran mein aisa bhi maqam aaya
raste pe zulm-o-jaur ke chalne lage hain hum
KHulus-o-fikr ki ye raushni kahan tak ho
zamin pe rah ke kahan fikr-e-asman rakhna
wo mere wajud ka sila hai
dosh par bar-e-gham uThae hue
KHwahishon ka badan samundar hai
