Rampur, Uttar pradesh, India
be-his o kaj-fahm o la-parwa kahe
wada jo tha nibah ka tumne wafa nahin kiya
aankhen hain surKH honT siyah rang zard hai
nam bhi achchha sa tha chehra bhi tha mahtab sa
nahr jis lashkar ki nigrani mein tab thi ab bhi hai
jab zara hui aahaT shaKH par hile patte
nind bhi tere bina ab to saza lagti hai
chehre pe mere rang pareshaniyon ka hai
zara si baat pe naraazgi agar hai yahi
aankh barsi hai tere nam pe sawan ki tarah
ek barg-e-sabz shaKH se kar ke juda bhi dekh
tum agar chaho kabhi biphra samundar dekhna
junun ka zikr mera aam ho gaya to kya
ye marhale bhi mohabbat ke bab mein aae
waise tumhein to aata nazar sab durust hai
