Azamgarh, Uttar pradesh, India
na aae kaam kisi ke jo zindagi kya hai
wo hasb-e-wada na aaya to aankh bhar aai
bimar-e-mohabbat ki dawa aur hi kuchh hai
na samjhe koi us se dushmani hai
hasb-e-wada mujhse milne wo kabhi aaya nahin
kar ke asir-e-ghamza-o-naz-o-ada mujhe
jise aana hai milne ke liye wo aa hi jata hai
ye jahan-e-ab-o-gil lagta hai ek maya mujhe
sukun-e-qalb kisi ko nahin mayassar aaj
ibn-e-adam barsar paikar hai
ru-e-zeba ko dikhate hain chale jate hain
parwaz mein jo sath na de aasman par
is ke ghar se mere ghar tak ek kahani bich mein hai
ro paDa na-gahan muskurane ke baad
tum aa rahe ho ki ja rahe ho
