Gorakhpur, Uttar pradesh, India
hath aae to wahi daman-e-jaanan ho jae
aankhon mein jo baat ho gai hai
zer-o-bam se saz-e-KHilqat ke jahan banta gaya
didar mein ek turfa didar nazar aaya
kuchh ishaare the jinhen duniya samajh baiThe the hum
aaj bhi qafila-e-ishq rawan hai ki jo tha
jaur-o-be-mehri-e-ighmaz pe kya rota hai
koi paigham-e-mohabbat lab-e-ejaz to de
sham-e-gham kuchh us nigah-e-naz ki baaten karo
samajhta hun ki tu mujhse juda hai
junun-e-kargar hai aur main hun
zamin badli falak badla mazaq-e-zindagi badla
bastiyan DhunDh rahi hain unhen viranon mein
narm faza ki karwaTen dil ko dukha ke rah gain
wo chup-chap aansu bahane ki raaten
