Lucknow, Uttar pradesh, India
shaKH-e-gul jhum ke gulzar mein sidhi jo hui
hamesha shefta rakhti hai apne husn-e-qudrat ka
jashn tha aish-o-tarab ki intiha thi main na tha
be-wafa tum ba-wafa main dekhiye hota hai kya
KHalwat-sara-e-yar mein pahunchega kya koi
ishq ho jaega meri dastan-e-ishq se
nahin karte wo baaten aalam-e-ruya mein bhi humse
kabhi jo yar ko dekha to KHwab mein dekha
ishq-bazon ki kahin duniya mein shunwai nahin
