Azamgarh, Uttar pradesh, India
hum bansuri par maut ki gate rahe naghma tera
sharab Dhalti hai shishe mein phul khilte hain
hum ahl-e-gham bhi rakhte hain jadu-bayaniyan
har ghaDi umr-e-faromaya ki qimat mange
ghar mein baiThe socha karte humse baDh kar kaun dukhi hai
us par bhi dushmanon ka kahin saya paD gaya
nashsha-e-mai ke siwa kitne nashe aur bhi hain
sote sote chaunk paDe hum KHwab mein humne kya dekha
ye alag baat ki har samt se patthar aaya
wo rang-e-ruKH wo aatish-e-KHun kaun le gaya
apna hi shikwa apna gila hai
ilahi aa na paDe phir koi gham-e-taza
hai ajib chiz ma-e-junun kabhi dil ki pyas nahin bujhi
KHud apna aks hun ki kisi ki sada hun main
hir Khaar-o-KHas se waza nibhate rahe hain hum
