Hazaribagh, Jharkhand, India
jis ke dil mein koi arman nahin hota hai
masjid-o-mandir ka yun jhagDa miTana chahiye
jo sakun na ras aaya to main gham mein Dhal raha hun
had se guzar na jaun main aisa na kijiye
koi chaudhwin-raat ka chand ban kar tumhaare tasawwur mein aaya to hoga
aap se dil lagana zaruri nahin
kab kaha maine ki tum chahne walon mein raho
chalne ka hunar kab aata hai jab tak koi Thokar khao nahin
bewafa hai wo kabhi pyar nahin kar sakta
shauq-e-izhaar hai karna bhi nahin chahte hain
band honTon se bhi izhaar-e-tamanna karte
ye farsh-o-arsh kya hai allah jaanta hai
yun bhaTakna dar-ba-dar achchha nahin lagta mujhe
hans hans kar aansu pi jaana aap ke bas ki baat nahin
duniya tujhe chahe kuchh bhi kahe hum jaan-e-tamanna kahte hain
