Delhi, India
shoKH kahta hai be-haya jaana
thi wasl mein bhi fikr-e-judai tamam shab
qahr hai maut hai qaza hai ishq
chal pare haT mujhe na dikhla munh
Dar to mujhe kis ka hai ki main kuchh nahin kahta
tum bhi rahne lage KHafa sahab
ejaz-e-jaan-dahi hai hamare kalam ko
ho na betab ada tumhaari aaj
shab tum jo bazm-e-ghair mein aankhen chura gae
na intizar mein yan aankh ek aan lagi
wade ki jo saat dam-e-kushtan hai hamara
momin KHuda ke waste aisa makan na chhoD
lage KHadang jab us nala-e-sahar ka sa
asar usko zara nahin hota
hai dil mein ghubar uske ghar apna na karenge
