Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan
dard ki raat ne ye rang bhi dikhlae hain
bhul kar tujhko bhara shahr bhi tanha dekhun
kash tufan mein safine ko utara hota
shoala-e-dil bujha ke dekh liya
dasht meri hi duhai dega
ahl-e-gham aao zara sair-e-gulistan kar len
kya ghazab tu ne ai bahaar kiya
jidhar nazren uThaen tirgi hai
dil jalaya teri KHushi ke liye
ujDa hua shahr phir basaun
aise lamhat bhi guzarte hain
sanware aaKHirat ya zindagi ko
tumhaara zauq-e-parastish mujhe aziz magar
choT nai hai lekin zaKHm purana hai
jab banTana hi azab Thahra
