Delhi, India
ab tak mujhe na koi mera raaz-dan mila
tumhein mujh mein kya nazar aa gaya jo mera ye rup bana gae
kahin to hogi mulaqat ai chaman-ara
meri be-hauslagi is se siwa aur sahi
ta-abad ek hi charcha hoga
makin hun aur hudud-e-makan nahin malum
aali jis ka fann-e-suKHan mein ek andaz nirala tha
haqiqaton ko fasana bana ke bhul gaya
ye ishq ki galiyan jin mein hum kis kis aalam mein aae gae
gila nahin jo wo begana-war guzre hain
umr bhar ba-asani bar-e-gham uThane se
bahut dinon se mujhe tera intizar hai aa ja
kuchh din guzre aali-sahib aali-ji kahlate the
begana-e-qayud-e-bahaar-o-KHizan rahe
tere KHayal ke diwar-o-dar banate hain
