Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan
ai aasman kis liye is darja barhami
uD gae sare parinde mausamon ki chah mein
tumne kis kaifiyat mein muKHatab kiya
lafz ki hurmat muqaddam hai dil-o-jaan se mujhe
mujh mein ab main nahin rahi baqi
jo tum ho to ye kaise man lun main
zindagi mein kabhi kisi ko bhi
kya jaaniye kya soch ke afsurda hua dil
pairwi se mumkin hai kab rasai manzil tak
tere firaq mein dil ka ajib aalam hai
wo jang jis mein muqabil rahe zamir mera
talluq jo bhi rakkho soch lena
mohabbat aur qurbani mein hi tamir muzmar hai
umr-bhar ke sajdon se mil nahin saki jannat
manus baam-o-dar se nazar puchhti rahi
