Agra, Uttar pradesh, India
na tha kuchh to KHuda tha kuchh na hota to KHuda hota
KHub tha pahle se hote jo hum apne bad-KHwah
pur hun main shikwe se yun rag se jaise baja
pinhan tha dam-e-saKHt qarib aashiyan ke
zahr milta hi nahin mujhko sitamgar warna
larazta hai mera dil zahmat-e-mehr-e-daraKHshan par
hai aadmi bajae KHud ek mahshar-e-KHayal
ghaalib na kar huzur mein tu bar bar arz
maine kaha ki bazm-e-naz chahiye ghair se tihi
maine chaha tha ki andoh-e-wafa se chhuTun
sunte hain jo bahisht ki tarif sab durust
arz-e-niyaz-e-ishq ke qabil nahin raha
hoga koi aisa bhi ki ghaalib ko na jaane
wada aane ka wafa kije ye kya andaz hai
har-chand ho mushahida-e-haq ki guftugu
