Lucknow, Uttar pradesh, India
phulon ko apne panw se Thukrae jate hain
koi pari ho agar ham-kanar holi mein
ruh tanha gai jannat ko subuk-sari se
dil aankhon se aashiq bachae hue hain
tashrif shab-e-wada jo wo lae hue hain
ai but hain husn mein teri mashhur pinDliyan
dil mujhe kufr aashna na kare
sar kaTa kar sifat-e-shama jo mar jate hain
