Aligarh, Uttar pradesh, India
ye dhup to har ruKH se pareshan karegi
itne din ke baad tu aaya hai aaj
usne meri nigah ke sare suKHan samajh liye
lamhon ke azab sah raha hun
ek aag gham-e-tanhai ki jo sare badan mein phail gai
ek shakl hamein phir bhai hai ek surat dil mein samai hai
kabhi saya hai kabhi dhup muqaddar mera
ba-wafa tha to mujhe puchhne wale bhi na the
ai mujhko fareb dene wale
bahut chhoTe hain mujhse mere dushman
KHwabon ke ufuq par tera chehra ho hamesha
kisi na-KHwanda buDhe ki tarah KHat us ka paDhta hun
wo daur qarib aa raha hai
ji na sakun main jis ke baghair
darwaza khula hai ki koi lauT na jae
