Ghazipur, Uttar pradesh, India
hamin jahan ke pichhe paDe rahen kab tak
safar ke baad bhi zauq-e-safar na rah jae
maqam-e-wasl to arz-o-sama ke bich mein hai
main choT kar to raha hun hawa ke mathe par
ab is ke baad meri quwwat-e-numu jaane
ye imtiyaz zaruri hai ab ibaadat mein
ye jo duniya hai ise itni ijazat kab hai
shab bhar ek aawaz banai subh hui to chiKH paDe
kabhi kabhi to ye wahshat bhi hum pe guzri hai
teri aankhon ke liye itni saza kafi hai
us se kahna ki dhuan dekhne laeq hoga
main sochta hun bahut zindagi ke bare mein
wo ek din jo tujhe sochne mein guzra tha
ye jo hum taKHliq-e-jahan-e-nau mein lage hain pagal hain
wahan pahle hi aawazen bahut thin
