Meerut, Uttar pradesh, India
qaid se pahle bhi aazadi meri KHatre mein thi
hazaron tarah apna dard hum usko sunate hain
ishq paband-e-wafa hai na ki paband-e-rusum
sabr par dil ko to aamada kiya hai lekin
apni haalat ka KHud ehsas nahin hai mujhko
murattab kar gaya ek ishq ka qanun duniya mein
kahte hain ki ummid pe jita hai zamana
ulfat mein mare to zindagi milti hai
baaton mein to iKHtiyar shirini kar
zalim dam-e-naza na aaya afsos
