Khairabad, Uttar pradesh, India
qais ne parda-e-mahmil ko jo dekha to kaha
ai ishq kahin le chal ye dair-o-haram chhuTen
zulf ka haal tak kabhi na suna
wo pahli sab wafaen kya huin ab ye jafa kaisi
ishq ka kanTa hamare dil mein ye kah kar chubha
buton mein nur-e-zat-e-kibriya malum hota hai
KHwahish-e-did pe inkar se aate hain maze
janab-e-KHizr rah-e-ishq mein laDne se kya hasil
aaina dekh kar ghurur fuzul
bose apne aariz-e-gulfam ke
qibla ban jae jahan tu koi patthar rakh de
surat to ek hi thi do ghar hue to kya hai
dhoke se bula kar jo mila tha to wo mujhse
Khaal-o-ariz ka tasawwur hai hamare dil mein
yun kahin Dub ke mar jaun to achchha hai magar
