Lucknow, Uttar pradesh, India
kuchh aur mangna mere mashrab mein kufr hai
ye zamin KHud ho jannaton ka suhag
KHuda-wanda ye kaisi subh-e-gham hai
jaan si shai ki mujhe ishq mein kuchh qadr nahin
ek kafir-e-mutlaq hai zulmat ki jawani bhi
tujhe pa ke tujhse juda ho gae hum
chamak shayad abhi giti ke zarron ki nahin dekhi
kaise phandega bagh ki diwar
abhi rakkha rahne do taq par yunhi aaftab ka aaina
na pi sako to idhar aao ponchh dun aansu
han tumko bhul jaane ki koshish karenge hum
jo ashk surKH hai nama-nigar hai dil ka
zarb-ul-masal hain ab meri mushkil-pasandiyan
hairan hain ab jaen kahan DhunDne tumko
ghusl-e-tauba ke liye bhi nahin milti hai sharab
