Dera Gazi Khan, Punjab, Pakistan
kal thake-haare parindon ne nasihat ki mujhe
zikr-e-shab-e-firaq se wahshat use bhi thi
hum apni dharti se apni har samt KHud talashen
tumhein jab ru-ba-ru dekha karenge
kyun tere dard ko den tohmat-e-virani-e-dil
mausam-e-zard mein ek dil ko bachaun kaise
har waqt ka hansna tujhe barbaad na kar de
jo de saka na pahaDon ko barf ki chadar
kitne lahjon ke ghilafon mein chhupaun tujhko
azal se qaem hain donon apni zidon pe mohsin
dasht-e-hasti mein shab-e-gham ki sahar karne ko
yun dekhte rahna use achchha nahin mohsin
wafa ki kaun si manzil pe usne chhoDa tha
shaKH-e-uriyan par khila ek phul is andaz se
chunti hain mere ashk ruton ki bhikaranen
