Rawalpindi, Punjab, Pakistan
ye jo tartib se bana hua main
sirf aazar uThane se kahan banta hai
chehre par KHush-haali le kar aata hun
apna apna dukh batlana hota hai
hamara aaina be-kar ho gaya to phir!
bagh ek din ka hai so raat nahin aane ki
kafil-e-saat-e-sayyar rakkha hota hai
na-jaane kaun tere kaKH-o-ku mein aaega
mera aur phulon ka rishta TuT gaya
do umron ki rui dhun kar aaya hun
thoDi chandi thoDa gara lagta hai
ghamon ki bhiD mein rasta bana ke chalta hun
ishq karta hun, taqaza nahin kar sakta main
ghar ko jaane ka rasta nahin tha
phul kitaben le ja tanha rahne de
