Aligarh, Uttar pradesh, India
yaad rakhne ki ye baaten hain baja hai sach hai
qazi ka na Dar hai na gham-e-mohtasib-e-shahr
apna baatin KHub hai zahir se bhi ai jaan-e-jaan
aap hi par nahin diwana-pan apna mauquf
panw pujun main apne hathon ke
ye hind hai ai mehr yahan puj buton ko
majma mein raqibon ke khula tha tera juDa
abru ka ishaara kiya tumne to hui id
teri talash se baqi koi makan na raha
daghon ki bas dikha di diwali mein raushni
namaz-e-subh wo hi paDh rahe the kabe mein
jawan rakhti hai mai dekhe ajab tasir pani mein
kafir-e-ishq hun mushtaq-e-shahadat bhi hun
fasl-e-gul aai to kya be-sar-o-saman hain hum
mere kanar se na kinara kare kabhi
