Delhi, India
mera shikwa teri mahfil mein adu karte hain
main bura hi sahi bhala na sahi
jo hota aah teri aah-e-be-asar mein asar
tu hi insaf se kah jis ka KHafa yar rahe
jis dil mein teri zulf ka sauda nahin hota
phira kisi ka ilahi kisi se yar na ho
aashiqon ko ai falak dewega tu aazar kya
dost jab dil sa aashna hi nahin
kya hue aashiq us shakar-lab ke
kuchh kam nahin hain shama se dil ki lagan mein hum
na chhoDi gham ne mere ek jigar mein KHun ki bund
jurat ai dil mai o mina hai wo KHud-kaam bhi hai
phul allah ne banae hain mahakne ke liye
shor ab aalam mein hai us shobada-pardaz ka
baaten na kis ne hum ko kahin tere waste
