Sialkot, Punjab, Pakistan
main to maqtal mein bhi qismat ka sikandar nikla
dil-girafta hi sahi bazm saja li jae
jis se ye tabiat baDi mushkil se lagi thi
tujhse bichhaD ke hum bhi muqaddar ke ho gae
aashiqi mein mir jaise KHwab mat dekha karo
kaha tha kis ne ki ahd-e-wafa karo us se
taDap uThun bhi to zalim teri duhai na dun
taras raha hun magar tu nazar na aa mujhko
apni hi aawaz ko be-shak kan mein rakhna
ye main bhi kya hun use bhul kar usi ka raha
le uDa phir koi KHayal hamein
wo dushman-e-jaan jaan se pyara bhi kabhi tha
ishq nashsha hai na jadu jo utar bhi jae
sabhi kahen mere gham-KHwar ke alawa bhi
