Malihabad, Uttar pradesh, India
be-shak asir-e-gesu-e-jaanan hain be-shumar
dekhiye ruswa na ho jae kahin kar-e-junun
jo hai tazgi meri zat mein wahi zikr-o-fikr-e-chaman mein hai
aaine mein hai faqat aap ka aks
dekho hamari samt ki zinda hain hum abhi
log milne ko chale aate hain diwane se
koi saghar pe saghar pi raha hai koi tishna hai
jab bhi us zulf-e-pareshan ki hawa aati hai
kushta-e-zabt-e-fughan naghma-e-be-saz-o-sada
ajab hai aalam ajab hai manzar ki sakta mein hai ye chashm-e-hairat
jo musafir bhi tere kuche se guzra hoga
ishq mein dil ka ye manzar dekha
jo kushud-e-kar-e-tilism hai wo faqat hamara hi ism hai
tumhaari aankhon ki gardishon mein baDi murawwat hai humne mana
hasin surat hamein hamesha hasin hi malum kyun na hoti
