Hyderabad, Telangana, India
bikti nahin faqir ki jholi hi kyun na ho
agar anar mein wo raushni nahin bharta
patte tamam halqa-e-sarsar mein rah gae
wo KHush-suKHan to kisi pairwi se KHush na hua
aaankhon pa abhi tohmat-e-binai kahan hai
zaban pe harf to inkar mein nahin aata
koi bhi zor KHaridar par nahin chalta
na-KHush gadai se na wo shahi se KHush hue
junun-pasand harif-e-KHirad to hum bhi hain
zindagi ehsan hi se mawara thi main na tha
dil dukh na jae baat koi be-sabab na puchh
ta-ba-kai manzil-ba-manzil hum musafir bhagte
dharti se dur hain na qarib aasman se hum
ab is se pahle ki tan man lahu lahu ho jae
giraftari ke sab harbe shikari le ke nikla hai
