Cuttack, Odisha, India
humne jab dard bhari apni kahani likkhi
paigham-e-shabab aa raha hai
ye kaun kahta hai tu halqa-e-naqab mein aa?
hath aa gaya hai jab se shuur-e-KHudi ka sanp
ru-ba-ru gham ke ye taqdir kahan se aai
la-intiha abhi
patwar gir gai thi samundar ki god mein
manzil pe bhi pahunch ke mayassar nahin sakun
hamesha aag ke dariya mein ishq kyun utre
sukun wasl mein itna nasib ho ki na ho
TuT kar kitnon ko majruh ye kar sakta hai
