Jalandhar, Punjab, India
sath-biin the sab, rahe bahar ki kai dekhte
hum falak ke aadmi the sakinan-e-qarya-e-mahtab the
musafirat ke tahayyur se kaT ke kab aae
jab agle sal yahi waqt aa raha hoga
kaun se jazbaat le kar tere pas aaya karun
jo sochta hun agar wo hawa se kah jaun
KHud mein jhanka to ajab manzar nazar aaya mujhe
waqt KHush-KHush kaTne ka mashwara dete hue
makan-e-dil se jo uThta tha wo dhuan bhi gaya
dard ghazal mein Dhalne se katraata hai
raat din mahbus apne zahiri paikar mein hun
usne ek din bhi na puchha bol aaKHir kis liye
wo dil ki tha kabhi sarsabz khetiyon ki tarah
jo sail-e-dard uTha tha wo jaan chhoD gaya
aanch aaegi na andar ki zaban tak ai dil
