Etawah, Uttar pradesh, India
chhupe to kaise chhupe chaman mein mera tera rabt-e-walihana
kuchh husn ke fasane tartib de raha hun
mauj-e-taKHayyul gul ka tabassum partaw-e-shabnam bijli ka saya
aa dost sath aa dar-e-mazi se mang laen
sun ai koh-o-daman ko sabz KHilat baKHshne wale
shauq kitne fareb deta hai
nahid o qamar ne raaton ke ahwal ko raushan kar to diya
kitne pur-haul andheron se guzar kar ai dost
barson se tera zikr tera nam nahin hai
afsos kisi se miT na saki insan ke dil ki tishna-labi
ab bhi jo log sar-e-dar nazar aate hain
bahaar ho ki mauj-e-mai ki taba ki rawaniyan
dil mein kya kya guman guzarte hain
wo din guzre ki jab ye zindagani ek kahani thi
ai aql sath rah ki paDega tujhi se kaam
