Badayun, Uttar pradesh, India
ek laDka shahr ki raunaq mein sab kuchh bhul jae
apne chaaron samt diwaren uThana raat din
dekh leta hai to khilte chale jate hain gulab
tum se mile to KHud se ziyaada
samundar ada-fahm tha ruk gaya
shoala-e-ishq bujhana bhi nahin chahta hai
tujhko supurdagi mein simaTna bhi hai zarur
bhul jaoge ki rahte the yahan dusre log
usko rahta hai hamesha mari wahshat ka KHayal
ajab harif tha mere hi sath Dub gaya
kabhi jo zahmat-e-kar-e-rafu nahin karta
abhi se rasta kyun rokne lagi duniya
ajnabi jaan ke kya nam-o-nishan puchhte ho
hamare dil ko ek aazar hai aisa nahin lagta
kaha tha tumne ki lata hai kaun ishq ki tab
