Faizabad, Uttar pradesh, India
wasl ki shab bhi ada-e-rasm-e-hirman mein raha
fikr hai shauq-e-kamar ishq-e-dahan paida karun
chahta hun pahle KHud-bini se maut aae mujhe
bhule se bhi na jaanib-e-aghyar dekhna
karo na der jahan mein jahan se aage chalo
ghaib se sahra-nawardon ka mudawa ho gaya
kahne sunne se meri unki adawat ho gai
shamim-e-yar na jab tak chaman mein chhu aae
gar yahi hai aadat-e-takrar hanste bolte
wasl mein bigDe bane yar ke aksar gesu
baDh gai mai pine se dil ki tamanna aur bhi
ek aafat-e-jaan hai jo mudawa mere dil ka
kyun KHarabaat mein laf-e-hama-dani waiz
parsai unki jab yaad aaegi
chaarasaz-e-zaKHm-e-dil waqt-e-rafu rone laga
