Farrukhabad, Uttar pradesh, India
na wo surat dikhate hain na milte hain gale aa kar
ahl-e-jannat mujhe lete hain na dozaKH wale
kaun si shab mujhko hogi lailatul-qadr ai KHuda
dil to wo mangte hain aur tamasha ye hai
samjha liya fareb se mujhko to aapne
sayyaad o baghban mein bahut hoti hai salah
haal-e-dil yar ko mahfil mein sunaen kyun-kar
panw paD kar laenge aankhen dikha kar laenge
kar sake dil ki wakalat na teri bazm mein log
istiKhaare ke liye bagh mein hum rindon ne
puchha hai haal-e-zar to sun lo KHata-muaf
kabe ki to kya asl hai us kuche se aage
apni kahen ki is dil-e-KHana-KHarab ki
yun mohabbat se jo chahe koi apna kar le
tujh sa koi jahan mein nazuk-badan kahan
