Saharanpur, Uttar pradesh, India
shikast-e-rang-e-tamanna ko arz-e-haal kahun
ahd-o-paiman kar ke paimane ke sath
wo nikhat-e-gesu phir ai ham-nafasan aai
sawal-e-ishq par ta-hashr chup rahna paDa mujhko
rabt-e-pinhan ki sadaqat hai na milna tera
chala hai le ke mujhe zauq-e-justuju mera
umr-e-abad se KHizr ko be-zar dekh kar
baada-e-gul ko sab andoh-ruba kahte hain
pas-e-wahshat hai to yaad-e-ruKH-e-laila bhi na kar
kaun kahta mujhe shaista-e-tahzib-e-junun
KHwab-e-didar na dekha humne
nikhat-e-zulf ko ham-rishta-e-jaan kahta hun
daur-e-sbuhi shola-e-mina raqsan chhanw mein taron ki
kya sitam kar gai ai dost teri chashm-e-karam
