Patna, Bihar, India
aankh dikhlane laga hai wo fusun-saz mujhe
charagh-e-zist bujha dil se ek dhuan nikla
shikwa-e-dard-e-jigar ai mehrban kyun kar karen
kis dil se tark-e-lazzat-e-duniya kare koi
bargashta aur wo but-e-be-pir ho na jae
aah-e-bimar kargar na hui
dil ajab jalwa-e-ummid dikhata hai mujhe
mahrum-e-shahadat ki hai kuchh tujhko KHabar bhi
kaam diwanon ko shahron se na bazaron se
KHizan ke jaur se waqif koi bahaar na ho
lipaTti hai bahut yaad-e-watan jab daman-e-dil se
Thokaren khilwain kya-kya pa-e-be-zanjir ne
wan naqab uTThi ki subh-e-hashr ka manzar khula
dard-e-dil roen kis ummid pe begane se
apni hasti KHud ham-aghosh-e-fana ho jaegi
