Azamgarh, Uttar pradesh, India
zaKHm khule paDte hain dil ke mausam hai ye bahaaron ka
wo teri inayat ki saza yaad hai ab tak
main ham-nafasan jism hun wo jaan ki tarah tha
tere taghaful se hai shikayat na apne miTne ka koi gham hai
kya mila ai zindagi qanun-e-fitrat se mujhe
dil hai to muqamat-e-fughan aur bhi honge
hamein chaar samt ki dauD mein wahi gard-e-baad-e-sada mila
ghirte baadal mein tanhai kaisi lagti hai
be-dili wo hai ki marne ki tamanna bhi nahin
numayan aur bhi ruKH teri be-ruKHi mein rahe
nawah-e-shauq mein hai ek dayar-e-nikhat-e-gul
rahon ke unch-nich zara dekh-bhaal ke
