Tonk, Rajasthan, India
inhi gham ki ghaTaon se KHushi ka chand niklega
mujhe donon jahan mein ek wo mil jaen gar aKHtar
parsai ki jawan-margi na puchh
laundry kholi thi uske ishq mein
un ras bhari aankhon mein haya khel rahi hai
yaad aao mujhe lillah na tum yaad karo
thak gae hum karte karte intizar
mana ki sab ke samne milne se hai hijab
din raat mai-kade mein guzarti thi zindagi
kisi maghrur ke aage hamara sar nahin jhukta
uThte nahin hain ab to dua ke liye bhi hath
mohabbat ke iqrar se sharm kab tak
tamannaon ko zinda aarzuon ko jawan kar lun
gham azizon ka hasinon ki judai dekhi
KHafa hain phir bhi aa kar chheD jate hain tasawwur mein
