Darbhanga, Bihar, India
tere jaur-o-jafa ka hum kabhi shikwa nahin karte
wo itna kam se kam to mehrban hai
tujh pe hum ek kitab likh baiThe
mera maslak hai mohabbat dosti shewa mera
tha jo ek kafir musalman ho gaya
jahan se ab guzarna chahte hain
ghaT gai hai qadr-o-qimat aaj ke insan ki
wo meri bekasi par kash thoDa mehrban hota
aap jab muskurae ghazal ho gai
tumko apna shumar karte hain
apni mahfil mein agar mujhko nahin paoge
bahut bar-e-garan ye zindagi malum hoti hai
aapko mujhse mohabbat bhi nahin
dard-e-dil zaKHm-e-jigar ka raazdan koi nahin
