Agra, Uttar pradesh, India
dikha ke jumbish-e-lab hi tamam kar hum ko
kuchh to paDhiye ki log kahte hain
kahte hain jite hain ummid pe log
tujhse to kuchh kalam nahin lekin ai nadim
nikalna KHuld se aadam ka sunte aae hain lekin
dam liya tha na qayamat ne hanuz
nisyah-o-naqd-e-do-alam ki haqiqat malum
ایک ایک قطرے کا مجھے دینا پڑا حساب
go main raha rahin-e-sitam-ha-e-rozgar
chhoDa na rashk ne ki tere ghar ka nam lun
rone se aur ishq mein be-bak ho gae
ek KHun-chakan kafan mein karoDon banao hain
koi ummid bar nahin aati
teshe baghair mar na saka kohkan asad
dhota hun jab main pine ko us sim-tan ke panw
