Jaunpur, Uttar pradesh, India
mohabbat kya baDhi hai wahm baham baDhte jate hain
afsurdagi-e-dil se ye rang hai suKHan mein
ab to nahin aasra kisi ka
mere aibon ki islahen hua kin bahas-e-dushman se
un ko dil de ke pashemani hai
jab tak ki tabiat se tabiat nahin milti
hue ishq mein imtihan kaise kaise
junun ke josh mein phirte hain mare mare ab
ho tark kisi se na mulaqat kisi ki
musibaten to uTha kar baDi baDi bhule
usko aazadi na milne ka hamein maqdur hai
yun to hasin akasr hote hain shan wale
mizhgan hain ghazab abru-e-KHamdar ke aage
kaha ye kis ne ki wade ka etibar na tha
hafiz wasl mein kuchh hijr ka KHayal na tha
