Barabanki, Uttar pradesh, India
gham-e-hayat gham-e-dil nishat-e-jaan guzra
kaise rakhenge sar pe kisi ka udhaar hum
daman ki fikr hai na gareban ki fikr hai
main shab-e-hijr kya karun tanha
ham-nafas KHwab-e-junun ki koi tabir na dekh
hijr mein guzri hai us raat ki baaten na karo
apne wahm-o-guman se nikla
intishaar-o-KHauf har ek sar mein hai
