Unnao, Uttar pradesh, India
wafa tujhse ai bewafa chahta hun
manus ho chala tha tasalli se haal-e-dil
kabhi ki thi jo ab wafa kijiyega
hasrat ki bhi qubul ho mathura mein haziri
raushan jamal-e-yar se hai anjuman tamam
be-zabani tarjuman-e-shauq behad ho to ho
husn-e-be-parwa ko KHud-bin o KHud-ara kar diya
jabin par sadgi nichi nigahen baat mein narmi
chhup nahin sakti chhupane se mohabbat ki nazar
jo aur kuchh ho teri did ke siwa manzur
hai mashq-e-suKHan jari chakki ki mashaqqat bhi
koshishen humne kin hazar magar
hai intiha-e-yas bhi ek ibtida-e-shauq
guzre bahut ustad magar rang-e-asar mein
aise bigDe ki phir jafa bhi na ki
