Darbhanga, Bihar, India
din bhi hai raat bhi hai subh bhi hai sham bhi hai
phir na darman ka kabhi nam mubarak lena
ye gham-kada hai isMein mubarak KHushi kahan
qibla-o-kaba ye to pine pilane ke hain din
kab un aankhon ka samna na hua
hansi hai dil-lagi hai qahqahe hain
mujhko malum hai anjam-e-mohabbat kya hai
jo qayamat ka nahin din wo mera din kaisa
kabhi dil ki kali khili hi nahin
kisi se aaj ka wada kisi se kal ka wada hai
rahne de apni bandagi zahid
dil lagate hi to kah deti hain aankhen sab kuchh
khaTak rahi hai koi shai nikal de koi
main to har har KHam-e-gesu ki talashi lunga
teri baKHshish ke bharose pe KHataen ki hain
