Delhi, India
dil ko kis surat se kije chashm-e-dilbar se juda
uThti ghaTa hai kis tarah bole wo zulf uTha ki yun
na zikr-e-ashna ne qissa-e-begana rakhte hain
subh-e-gulshan mein ho gar wo gul-e-KHandan paida
sada hai is aah-o-chashm-e-tar se falak pe bijli zamin pe baran
jism uske gham mein zard-az-na-tawani ho gaya
tere hai zulf o ruKH ki did subh-o-sham aashiq ka
juda nahin hai har ek mauj dekh aab ke bich
chhoDa na tujhe ne ram kya ye bhi na hua wo bhi na hua
kyun na kahen bashar ko hum aatish-o-ab o KHak-o-baad
