Delhi, India
dil hai bahr-e-be-karan dil ki umang
faza-e-alam-e-qudsi mein hai nashw-o-numa meri
nur-e-iman surma-e-chashm-e-dil-o-jaan kijiye
darmiyan-e-jism-o-jaan hai ek ajab surat ki aaD
dil ki taskin ko kafi hai pareshan hona
kaam is duniya mein aa kar humne kya achchha kiya
ruswa-e-ishq mein tera shaida kahen jise
goya zaban haal thi sahir KHamosh tha
jala hai kis qadar dil zauq-e-kawish-ha-e-mizhgan par
mast-e-nigah-e-naz ka arman nikaliye
jo la-mazhab ho usko millat-o-mashrab se kya matlab
jasad ne jaan se puchha ki qalb-e-be-riya kya hai
dair-o-haram hain manzar-e-ain-e-iKHtilaf
junun ke josh mein jis ne mohabbat ko hunar jaana
ayan ho rang mein aur misl-e-bu gul mein nihan bhi ho
