Lucknow, Uttar pradesh, India
dilon mein dard hi utna kashid rakkha hai
gardish-e-muqaddar ka silsila jo chal jae
musafiron ke ye wahm-o-guman mein tha hi nahin
ru-ba-ru but ke dua ki bhul ho jae to phir
har ek gam pe ek but banana chaha hai
darun-e-halqa-e-zanjir hun main
husul-e-rizq ke arman nikalte guzri
mere chaaron taraf ek aahani diwar kyun hai
