Ludhiana, Punjab, India
aqaed wahm hain mazhab KHayal-e-KHam hai saqi
har qadam marhala-e-dar-o-salib aaj bhi hai
tang aa chuke hain kashmakash-e-zindagi se hum
apna dil pesh karun apni wafa pesh karun
go maslak-e-taslim-o-raza bhi hai koi chiz
toD lenge har ek shai se rishta toD dene ki naubat to aae
har tarah ke jazbaat ka elan hain aankhen
meri taqdir mein jalna hai to jal jaunga
jab kabhi unki tawajjoh mein kami pai gai
parbaton ke peDon par sham ka basera hai
sadiyon se insan ye sunta aaya hai
barbaad-e-mohabbat ki dua sath liye ja
sharma ke yun na dekh ada ke maqam se
ab koi gulshan na ujDe ab watan aazad hai
dur rah kar na karo baat qarib aa jao
