Patna, Bihar, India
sabr karna saKHt mushkil hai taDapna sahl hai
duniya ke sath din ki begar al-aman
musibat ka pahaD aaKHir kisi din kaT hi jaega
muflisi mein mizaj shahana
wahi saqi wahi saghar wahi shisha wahi baada
saqi main dekhta hun zamin aasman ka farq
kaba nahin ki sari KHudai ko daKHl ho
buton ko dekh ke sab ne KHuda ko pahchana
rang badla phir hawa ka mai-kashon ke din phire
jaise dozaKH ki hawa kha ke abhi aaya ho
pahunchi yahan bhi shaiKH o barhaman ki kashmakash
baz aa sahil pe ghote khane wale baz aa
husn-e-zati bhi chhupae se kahin chhupta hai
na sang-e-mil na naqsh-e-qadam na bang-e-jaras
yaksan kabhi kisi ki na guzri zamane mein
