Jhelum, Punjab, Pakistan
waise to bahut dhoya gaya ghar ka andhera
tamiz-e-pisar-e-zamin wa ibn-e-falak na karna
main jab bhi chhune lagun tum zara pare ho jao
har kisi ka har kisi se rabta TuTa hua
kabhi KHud ko dard-shanas karo kabhi aao na
phir bapa shahar mein afraatafri kar jae
wo itr-e-KHak ab kahan pani ki bas mein
apni kaifiyyaten har aan badalti hui sham
naslen jo andhere ke mahazon pe laDi hain
dikhai jaegi shahr-e-shab mein sahar ki tamsil chal ke dekhen
han usi din dhup mein haryaliyan shamil huin
jab chaha KHud ko shad ya nashad kar liya
kahin sota na rah jaun sada de kar jagao na
rizq ka jab nadaron par darwaza band hua
ek fana ke ghaT utra ek pagal ho gaya
