Faizabad, Uttar pradesh, India
bhiD mein koi shanasa bhi nahin chhoDti hai
gunge lafzon ka ye be-samt safar mera hai
ai dasht-e-arzu mujhe manzil ki aas de
zindagi di hai to jine ka hunar bhi dena
hum ghazal mein tera charcha nahin hone dete
charag apni thakan ki koi safai na de
ai yaqinon ke KHuda shahr-e-guman kis ka hai
thaki hui mamta ki qimat laga rahe hain
bikhre bikhre sahme sahme roz o shab dekhega kaun
ek TuTi hui zanjir ki fariyaad hain hum
jism ka bojh uThae hue chalte rahiye
bhigti aaankhon ke manzar nahin dekhe jate
mere thake hue shanon se bojh utar to gaya
