Lucknow, Uttar pradesh, India
muddat mein sham-e-wasl hui hai mujhe nasib
sarakti jae hai ruKH se naqab aahista aahista
aahon se soz-e-ishq miTaya na jaega
jo chahiye so mangiye allah se amir
teri masjid mein waiz KHas hain auqat rahmat ke
phir baiThe baiThe wada-e-wasl usne kar liya
mili hai duKHtar-e-raz laD-jhagaD ke qazi se
gard uDi aashiq ki turbat se to jhunjhla kar kaha
kaba bhi hum gae na gaya par buton ka ishq
kahte ho ki hamdard kisi ka nahin sunte
puchha na jaega jo watan se nikal gaya
qarib hai yaro roz-e-mahshar chhupega kushton ka KHun kyunkar
aashiq ka bankpan na gaya baad-e-marg bhi
hum jo pahunche to lab-e-gor se aai ye sada
nabz-e-bimar jo ai rashk-e-masiha dekhi
