Lucknow, Uttar pradesh, India
jab nazar jaan0b-e-asbab-e-fana karte hain
shikast-e-zarf se khoen na hum bharam apna
un se bargashta-nigahi ke siwa kuchh na mila
sukun mil gaya hai qarar aa gaya hai
jo mahtab mein hai waqt-e-shab jamal tera
dil-e-wahshi ka afsana kahega tum bhi sun lena
nakaamiyon pe sar-ba-gareban nahin hun main
hai kuchh agar saliqa hai kuchh agar qarina
ishq mein jaan se guzarne ko
is tarah ishq ka aazar na ji ko hoga
hazar kufr hain ek chashm-e-parsa mein teri
hawas-o-hosh se begana hona bhi zaruri hai
tum se multaji ho kar kya bataen kya paya
jam lete hain na pine ko subu lete hain
har ek ke tajarbe se muKHtalif hai tajraba mera
