Shikohabad, Uttar pradesh, India
dil to pazhmurda hai dagh-e-gulsitan hon to kya
abru ki teri zarb-e-do-dasti chali gai
nashe mein sahwan kar li tauba
aamad tasawwur-e-but-e-bedad-gar ki hai
aaine ke aks se gul sa badan maila hua
dushman ki malamat bala hai
kyunkar shikar-e-husn na khelen yahan ke log
hath malwati hain huron ko tumhaari chuDiyan
asar kar ke aah-e-rasa phir gai
kuchh nahin hasil sipar ko chir ko ya talwar toD
fasl-e-bahaar aai hai paimana chahiye
ai but jo shab-e-hijr mein dil tham na lete
roz dilha-e-mai-kashan TuTe
umr baqi rah-e-jaanan mein basar hone ko hai
haal-e-poshida khula saman-e-ibrat dekh kar
