Saharanpur, Uttar pradesh, India
patthar mar ke chaurahe par ek aurat ko mar diya
kisi bachche se pinjra khul gaya hai
masala tha to bas ana ka tha
usko jate hue dekha tha pukara tha kahan
us se kahna ki bura KHwab tha ab yaad nahin
usko nae safar mein nae ham-safar ke sath
kuchh zulm o sitam sahne ki aadat bhi hai hum ko
hijr ki raat wo KHat bhi jalae to kaise
hum to teri kahani likh aae
tujhse kaha tha KHushbuen uske badan ki laiyo
main nahin tha to yahan waqai virana tha
hum ko itna gira-paDa na samajh
honTon se us dard ki KHushbu aa kar jism mein phail gai
zindagi se KHushi ki hai ummid
dushman-e-jaan hai magar jaan se pyara bhi hai
