Badayun, Uttar pradesh, India
KHud main zindan mein hun tirgi ke
shahr mein ek ajab KHak-ba-sar aaya hai
miTTi ki imarat saya de kar miTTi mein hamwar hui
na sahn-o-baam na diwar-o-dar purane hain
aise ghurbat mein baiTha hun jaise baDa bar-e-sar rakh diya
taj-mahal
zindagi
le chal ai ishq
bachcha aur murgha
jis ke liye bachcha roya tha aur ponchhe the aansu baba ne
hum ko bhi KHush-numa nazar aai hai zindagi
har patti bojhal ho ke giri sab shaKHen jhuk kar TuT gain
main itni raushni phaila chuka hun
ab hawaen hi karengi raushni ka faisla
