Agra, Uttar pradesh, India
hawas ko hai nashat-e-kar kya kya
latafat be-kasafat jalwa paida kar nahin sakti
kyun jal gaya na tab-e-ruKH-e-yar dekh kar
milti hai KHu-e-yar se nar iltihab mein
rahiye ab aisi jagah chal kar jahan koi na ho
bisat-e-ijz mein tha ek dil yak qatra KHun wo bhi
husn-e-mah garche ba-hangam-e-kamal achchha hai
husn-e-be-parwa KHaridar-e-mata-e-jalwa hai
koi ummid bar nahin aati
aah ko chahiye ek umr asar hote tak
ishrat-e-qatra hai dariya mein fana ho jaana
asad hum wo junun-jaulan gada-e-be-sar-o-pa hain
fariyaad ki koi lai nahin hai
donon jahan de ke wo samjhe ye KHush raha
sadgi par uski mar jaane ki hasrat dil mein hai
