Islamabad, Pakistan
ghar lauTte hain jab bhi koi yar ganwa kar
riya-kariyon se musallah ye lashkar mujhe mar denge
makin yahin ka hai lekin makan se bahar hai
kisi ke hijr mein yun TuT kar roya nahin karte
na aarzuon ka chand chamka na qurbaton ke gulab mahke
shab ki shab mahfil mein koi KHush-kalam aaya to kya
visal-ghaDiyon mein reza reza bikhar rahe hain
irada tha ki ab ke rang-e-duniya dekhna hai
dushman ko zad par aa jaane do dashna mil jaega
hum pariyon ke chahne wale KHwab mein dekhen pariyan
aankhon se KHwab dil se tamanna tamam-shud
sine ki KHanqah mein aane nahin diya
gulab-e-surKH se aarasta dalan karna hai
main talash mein kisi aur ki mujhe DhunDhta koi aur hai
tujhse bichhaD ke samt-e-safar bhulne lage
