Lucknow, Uttar pradesh, India
tamam jism hi ghayal tha ghaw aisa tha
lafzon ke ye nagine to nikle kamal ke
apni palkon se uske ishaare uTha
KHamoshiyon mein sada se likha hua ek nam
ho ke bechain main bhaga kiya aahu ki tarah
ek ghazal us pe likhun dil ka taqaza hai bahut
nazar mila na sake us se is nigah ke baad
wo lab ki jaise saghar-e-sahba dikhai de
uski dhun mein har taraf bhaga kiya dauDa kiya
bichhaD ke tujhse na jite hain aur na marte hain
apna pata na apni KHabar chhoD jaunga
palkon ki oT mein wo chhupa le gaya mujhe
tez ho jata hai KHushbu ka safar sham ke baad
aag hai pani hai miTTi hai hawa hai mujh mein
