Chandpur, Uttar pradesh, India
dil ko harif-e-gardish-e-dauran kiye hue
sach to ye hai ki dida-war ho tum
taufiq agar rahbar-e-manzil nahin hoti
nigah-e-shauq waqf-e-husn-e-fitrat hoti jati hai
husn-e-surat dekh kar rang-e-tabiat dekh kar
nigah-e-ishq mein tabindagi nahin milti
meri fitrat haqiqat-ashna malum hoti hai
qissa-e-husn nahin ishq ki rudad nahin
dil nahin pahlu mein dard-e-dil nahin
ishrat-e-haal mein andesha-e-farda karna
ham-nashin aisi koi tadbir honi chahiye
rahzan nahin harif nahin ham-safar nahin
dil ko harif-e-naz kiye ja raha hun main
dil-ruba bhi wo dil-nawaz bhi hai
pachhtane se kya hasil pachhtane se kya hoga
