Agra, Uttar pradesh, India
hai husul-e-arzu ka raaz tark-e-arzu
tere jalwon ne mujhe gher liya hai ai dost
KHulus-e-dil se sajda ho to us sajde ka kya kahna
gunahon par wahi insan ko majbur karti hai
ho gae ruKHsat rais o aali o wasif nisar
nashat-e-husn ho josh-e-wafa ho ya gham-e-ishq
kahani hai to itni hai fareb-e-KHwab-e-hasti ki
husn mein jab naz shamil ho gaya
wo duniya thi jahan tum band karte the zaban meri
dekhte hi dekhte duniya se main uTh jaunga
duniya hai KHwab hasil-e-duniya KHayal hai
lahu se maine likha tha jo kuchh diwar-e-zindan par
rang bharte hain wafa ka jo tasawwur mein tere
umr-e-daraaz mang ke lai thi chaar din
ye meri tira-nasibi ye sadgi ye fareb
