Raebareli, Uttar pradesh, India
tumhaare shahr mein mayyat ko sab kandha nahin dete
abhi zinda hai man meri mujhe kuchh bhi nahin hoga
hum nahin the to kya kami thi yahan
dekhna hai tujhe sahra to pareshan kyun hai
tujhe malum hai in phephaDon mein zaKHm aae hain
bojh uThana shauq kahan hai majburi ka sauda hai
maine kal shab chahaton ki sab kitaben phaD den
aate hain jaise jaise bichhaDne ke din qarib
phir karbala ke baad dikhai nahin diya
sahra pe bura waqt mere yar paDa hai
kuchh bikhri hui yaadon ke qisse bhi bahut the
munawwar man ke aage yun kabhi khul kar nahin rona
mere bachchon mein sari aadaten maujud hain meri
tumne jab shahr ko jangal mein badal Dala hai
kisi ki yaad aati hai to ye bhi yaad aata hai
