Shikarpur, Uttar pradesh, India
safar aasan hai lekin use dushwar karte hain
bas yahi baat yahan harf-e-malamat ki hai
kabhi jo dhup hamare makan mein aa jae
bahte hue dariya ke kinaron ki tarah tha
kahin ye KHwab mera zindagi na ban jae
rawana wo bhi hua hai nae safar ke liye
main raste mein jahan Thahra hua tha
charagh jab se mere tirgi se haar gae
pattharon se na kabhi TuT ke ulfat karna
koi charagh na jugnu safar mein rakkha gaya
zindagi ki tha alamat ek hunar be-jaan sa
main apni zat ki tafsir karne wala kaun
wo dariya hai koi sahra nahin hai
aankh se nikla to ek sail-e-rawan ho jaega
kuchh log to itni bhi murawwat nahin karte
