Badayun, Uttar pradesh, India
wo humse dur hote ja rahe hain
bit gaya hangam-e-qayamat roz-e-qayamat aaj bhi hai
raushni saya-e-zulmat se aage na baDhi
hazar qaid-e-KHizan se chhuT kar bahaar ka aasra karenge
tamhid-e-sitam aur hai takmil-e-jafa aur
gham-e-ashiqi se kah do rah-e-am tak na pahunche
jam gardish mein hai dar-band hain mai-KHanon ke
wo dil mein rahte hain dil ka nishan nahin malum
mere ham-nafas mere ham-nawa mujhe dost ban ke dagha na de
is darja bad-guman hain KHulus-e-bashar se hum
junun se guzarne ko ji chahta hai
un se ummid-e-ru-numai hai
ek ik qadam fareb-e-tamanna se bach ke chal
nazar se qaid-e-tayyun uThai jati hai
abhi jazba-e-shauq kaamil nahin hai
