Gorakhpur, Uttar pradesh, India
sar-zamin-e-hind par aqwam-e-alam ke firaq
tabiat apni ghabraati hai jab sunsan raaton mein
tera firaq to us din tera firaq hua
tum muKHatib bhi ho qarib bhi ho
dil-e-warufta-e-didar ki allah re mahwiyyat
na ho ehsas to sara jahan hai be-his-o-murda
agar badal na diya aadmi ne duniya ko
be-KHudi mein ek KHalish si bhi na ho aisa nahin
jis mein ho yaad bhi teri shamil
wo raaton-raat siri-krishn ko uThae hue
tasawwur mein tujhe zauq-e-ham-aghoshi ne bhincha tha
aae the hanste khelte mai-KHane mein firaq
zikr tha rang-o-bu ka aur dil mein
tamam shabnam-o-gul hai wo sar se ta-ba-qadam
jahan mein thi bas ek afwah tere jalwon ki
