Lucknow, Uttar pradesh, India
saf kahte ho magar kuchh nahin khulta kahna
jab se bulbul tu ne do tinke liye
jab se bandha hai tasawwur us ruKH-e-pur-nur ka
puchha na jaega jo watan se nikal gaya
tera kya kaam ab dil mein gham-e-jaanana aata hai
wasl ho jae yahin hashr mein kya rakkha hai
hue namwar be-nishan kaise kaise
kis DhiTai se wo dil chhin ke kahte hain amir
tumko aata hai pyar par ghussa
lutf aane laga jafaon mein
