Tonk, Rajasthan, India
yun to kis phul se rangat na gai bu na gai
tamannaon ko zinda aarzuon ko jawan kar lun
jhum kar badli uThi aur chha gai
bujha sa rahta hai dil jab se hain watan se juda
meri aankhon se zahir KHun-fishani ab bhi hoti hai
na bhul kar bhi tamanna-e-rang-o-bu karte
su-e-kalkatta jo hum ba-dil-e-diwana chale
wo kabhi mil jaen to kya kijiye
aashna ho kar taghaful aashna kyun ho gae
na wo KHizan rahi baqi na wo bahaar rahi
un ko bulaen aur wo na aaen to kya karen
na chheD zahid-e-nadan sharab pine de
kya kah gai kisi ki nazar kuchh na puchhiye
na saz-o-mutrib na jam-o-saqi na wo bahaar-e-chaman hai baqi
aao be-parda tumhein jalwa-e-pinhan ki qasam
