Meerut, Uttar pradesh, India
yaran-e-bazm-dahr mein kya kya tapak tha
dosti aur kisi gharaz ke liye
gar KHanda yaad aae to sine ko chaak kar
parwane ki tapish ne KHuda jaane kan mein
ya wafa hi na thi zamane mein
kya ho gaya ise ki tujhe dekhti nahin
jis ne chashm-e-mast-e-saqi dekh li
kya ab bhi mujh pe farz nahin dosti-e-kufr
bad ki sohbat mein mat baiTho is ka hai anjam bura
gar dekhiye to KHatir-e-nashad shad hai
apni hi jalwagari hai ye koi aur nahin
kya hai wo jaan-e-mujassam jis ke shauq-e-did mein
