Ludhiana, Punjab, India
phir na kije meri gustaKH-nigahi ka gila
chand kaliyan nashat ki chun kar muddaton mahw-e-yas rahta hun
kis darja dil-shikan the mohabbat ke hadse
tumhaare ahd-e-wafa ko main ahd kya samjhun
jazbaat bhi hindu hote hain chahat bhi musalman hoti hai
jab tum se mohabbat ki humne tab ja ke kahin ye raaz khula
aurat ne janam diya mardon ko mardon ne use bazar diya
koi to aisa ghar hota jahan se pyar mil jata
wo afsana jise anjam tak lana na ho mumkin
bas ab to daman-e-dil chhoD do bekar ummido
abhi zinda hun lekin sochta rahta hun KHalwat mein
is rengti hayat ka kab tak uThaen bar
tum husn ki KHud ek duniya ho shayad ye tumhein malum nahin
tarab-zaron pe kya guzri sanam-KHanon pe kya guzri
jo mil gaya usi ko muqaddar samajh liya
