Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan
dast-e-sumum dast-e-saba kyun nahin hua
ujla tera bartan hai aur saf tera pani
duniya mein suragh-e-rah-e-duniya nahin milta
KHun-e-dil se kisht-e-gham ko sinchta rahta hun main
chamak-damak pe na jao khari nahin koi shai
manzar-e-subh dikhane use laya na gaya
aaj ro kar to dikhae koi aisa rona
chand is ghar ke darichon ke barabar aaya
ashk daman mein bhare KHwab kamar par rakkha
bahta aansu ek jhalak mein kitne rup dikhaega
khaDe hain dil mein jo barg-o-samar lagae hue
in mausamon mein nachte gate rahenge hum
nala-e-KHunin se raushan dard ki raaten karo
raat phir rang pe thi uske badan ki KHushbu
kahin ummid si hai dil ke nihan KHane mein
