Balrampur, Uttar pradesh, India
go mere sar pe siyah raat ki parchhain hai
tu ne KHud talKH bana rakkhi hai duniya apni
ye to hain chand hi jalwe jo chhalak aae hain
muttahid ho ke uThe zulm ke qadmon se awam
tu haqiqat ko samajhta hai tilismi taswir
rang par rang nikharte hi chale aate hain
ab kisi ko bhi nahin hausla-e-talKHi-e-jam
hawa-e-subh-e-mashriq jag uThi hai
ishq ek jins-e-giran-maya hai ek daulat hai
maut ko jaante hain asl-e-hayat-e-abadi
meri duniya mein mohabbat nahin kahte hain ise
apne uDte hue aanchal ko na rah rah ke sambhaal
tu nahin hai na sahi teri mohabbat ka KHayal
dekho to tira-o-tarik faza ka aalam
chashm-e-bina mein sitaron ki haqiqat kya hai
