Meerut, Uttar pradesh, India
zuleKHa be-KHirad aawara laila bad-maza shirin
main raazdan hun ye ki jahan tha wahan na tha
na ye hai na wo hai na main hun na tu hai
tu dekh to udhar ki jo dekha na jae phir
amn aur tere ahd mein zalim
kasrat-e-sajda se pasheman hain
na ho aarzu kuchh yahi aarzu hai
but-KHane ki ulfat hai na kabe ki mohabbat
aasman ahl-e-zamin se kya kudurat-nak tha
kufr aur islam mein dekha to nazuk farq tha
ashk ke girte hi aankhon mein andhera chha gaya
waiz ne mai-kade ko jo dekha to jal gaya
hum us kuche mein uThne ke liye baiThe hain muddat se
tu hai harjai to apna bhi yahi taur sahi
na lagti aankh to sone mein kya burai thi
