Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan
ye shafaq chand sitare nahin achchhe lagte
yun wafa ke sare nibhao gham ki fareb mein bhi yaqin ho
tamam fikr zamane ki Tal deta hai
kabhi muD ke phir isi rah par na to aae tum na to aae hum
mujhe rang de na surur de mere dil mein KHud ko utar de
shikasta-dil andheri shab akela rahbar kyun ho
abhi se kaise kahun tumko bewafa sahab
bahaaron ke aanchal mein KHush-bu chhupi hai
kis KHata ki saza mili usko
ye raushni tere kamre mein KHud nahin aai
