Tonk, Rajasthan, India
jhum kar badli uThi aur chha gai
tamannaon ko zinda aarzuon ko jawan kar lun
har ek jalwa-e-rangin meri nigah mein hai
nikhat-e-zulf se nindon ko basa de aa kar
na bhul kar bhi tamanna-e-rang-o-bu karte
ai ishq hamein barbaad na kar
jahan rehana rahti thi
gujraat ki raat
ai ishq kahin le chal
o des se aane wale bata
dil mein leta hai chuTkiyan koi
kuchh to tanhai ki raaton mein sahaara hota
chaman walon se mujh sahra-nashin ki bud-o-bash achchhi
umr bhar ki talKH bedari ka saman ho gain
bhula baiThe ho hum ko aaj lekin ye samajh lena
jannat ka saman dikha diya hai mujhko
id aai hai aish-o-nosh ka saman kar
rindon ko bahisht ki KHabar de saqi
mai-KHana-ba-dosh hain ghaTaen saqi
