Maunath Bhanjan, Uttar pradesh, India
pi to lun aankhon mein umDe hue aansu lekin
hain wajud-e-shai mein pinhan azal o abad ke rishte
ye dushmani hai saqi ya dosti hai saqi
dikha di maine wo manzil jo in donon ke aage hai
aish hi aish hai na sab gham hai
dil ka lahu nigah se Tapka hai bar-ha
lazzat-e-dard mili ishrat-e-ehsas mili
guftugu ke KHatm ho jaane par aaya ye KHayal
shauq-e-manzil ham-safar hai jazba-e-dil rahbar
mere hath suljha hi lenge kisi din
haar ke bhi nahin miTi dil se KHalish hayat ki
jab chheDti hain un ko gumnam aarzuen
hum ahl-e-dil ne meayar-e-mohabbat bhi badal Dale
jin hauslon se mera junun mutmain na tha
dayar-e-sajda mein taqlid ka riwaj bhi hai
