Manikpur, Uttar pradesh, India
ashkon ne gir ke KHak pe miTTi KHarab ki
kisi mein tab kahan thi ki dekhta un ko
bura kya hai bandho agar tegh-o-KHanjar
aankhen KHuda ne di hain to dekhenge husn-e-yar
tum jo kahte ho bigaD kar hum na aaenge kabhi
dil kabhi lakh KHushamad pe bhi raazi na hua
unki surat dekh li KHush ho gae
ho hari shaKH-e-tamanna ya na ho
jaise jaise dar-e-dildar qarib aata hai
mizan khaDi hui mere aage na roz-e-hashr
aankhen bata rahi hain ki jage ho raat ko
wo zulf-e-mushk-bu bikhri hui thi
surKH hon kyun na phul gulshan ke
ye to mana ki tere bas mein hai sari duniya
ada ada teri mauj-e-sharab ho ke rahi
