Manikpur, Uttar pradesh, India
qasid aaya magar jawab nahin
ye kahna us se ai qasid jo mahw-e-KHud-parasti hai
din ki aahen na gain raat ke nale na gae
rahat na mil saki mujhe mai-KHana chhoD kar
ghaTa diya rutba har hasin ka miTa diya rang hur-e-in ka
humne ki husn-parasti to tujhe kya naseh
jawan hote hi le uDa husn tumko
ab aao rakh lun chhupa kar tumhein kaleje mein
raat ko aa kar jo tum milte to han ek baat thi
tark-e-mai ki hui talafi yun
