Manikpur, Uttar pradesh, India
barsao tir mujh pe magar itna jaan lo
meri bahaar mein aalam KHizan ka rahta hai
mere dagh-e-jigar ko phul kah kar
kamal-e-ishq to dekho wo aa gae lekin
zabt-e-nala se aaj kaam liya
ghurur se jo zamin par qadam nahin rakhti
aankhen teri har ek se milti hain be-hijab
lazzat-e-dard-e-mohabbat nahin hoti jis mein
zulf-e-sumbul nikhat-e-gul mauj-e-sabza mauj-e-ab
roz wo KHwab mein aate hain gale milne ko
baat ulTi wo samajhte hain jo kuchh kahta hun
hum jo masti mein girte paDte hain
mai-kashi se najat mushkil hai
KHun ki chadar mubarak ba-haya talwar ko
mere tul-e-shab-e-judai ko
