Badayun, Uttar pradesh, India
koi roe to main be-wajh KHud bhi rone lagta hun
roe baghair chaara na rone ki tab hai
ai soz-e-jaan-gudaz abhi main jawan hun
isMein koi mera sharik nahin
meri KHabar to kisi ko nahin magar aKHtar
us se puchhe koi chahat ke maze
yaad-e-mazi azab hai ya-rab
yaron ke iKHlas se pahle dil ka mere ye haal na tha
jab se munh ko lag gai aKHtar mohabbat ki sharab
shabab-e-dard meri zindagi ki subh sahi
wo mazi jo hai ek majmua ashkon aur aahon ka
sunne wale fasana tera hai
han kabhi KHwab-e-ishq dekha tha
dusron ka dard aKHtar mere dil ka dard hai
main kisi se apne dil ki baat kah sakta na tha
