Delhi, India
kis tarah haal-e-dil kahun us gul se bagh mein
nashsha-e-husn mein sarshaar chala jata hai
apne upar tu rahm kar zalim
gar wo but-e-gulnar-qaba jalwa-numa ho
jata hai chala qafila-e-ashk shab o roz
mohabbat aise ki bedar saKHt mushkil hai
gar kisi ghair ko farmaoge tab jaanoge
sab luTa ishq ke maidan mein uryan aaya
Tuk ai but apne mukhDe se uTha de gosha-e-burqa
hun main wo diwana-e-nazuk-mizaj-e-gul-ruKHan
aah qasid to ab talak na phira
KHushi hai sab ko roz-e-eid ki yan
mai-kade mein jo tere husn ka mazkur hua
ye bhi aana hai koi is se na aana behtar
bap ka hai faKHr wo beTa ki rakhta ho kamal
