Moradabad, Uttar pradesh, India
na aai baat tak bhi munh pe roab-e-husn-e-jaanan se
kyunkar baDhaun rabt na darban-e-yar se
diya wo jo na tha wahm-o-guman mein
kaTa tha roz-e-musibat KHuda KHuda kar ke
rah-e-ulfat mein mulaqat hui kis kis se
labon pe jaan hai ek dam ka aur mehman hai
badan par bar hai phulon ka saya
pyar ki baaten kijiye sahab
KHuda ra bahr-e-istiqbaal jald ai jaan bahar aa
rail par yar aaega shayad
hamare marg pe shadi abas aghyar karte hain
paDa hun main yahan aur dil wahin hai
le qaza ehsan tujh par kar chale
jis ko dekho wo nur ka buqa
na nikli hasrat-e-dil ek bhi hazar afsos
