Rampur, Uttar pradesh, India
tum yun hi samajhna ki fana mere liye hai
daur-e-hayat aaega qatil qaza ke baad
arsh tak jo be-KHata jata hai ye wo tir hai
qaid aur qaid bhi tanhai ki
KHugar-e-jaur pe thoDi si jafa aur sahi
gila ai dil abhi se karta hai
Dar nahin mujhko gunahon ki giran-bari ka
hum maani-e-hawas nahin ai dil hawa-e-dost
dil ko halak-e-jalwa-e-jaanan banaiye
kis se aazurda mere qatil ka KHanjar ho gaya
KHak jina hai agar maut se Darna hai yahi
be-KHauf-e-ghair dil ki agar tarjuman na ho
tishna-lab hun muddaton se dekhiye
tanhai ke sab din hain tanhai ki sab raaten
