Ballia, Uttar pradesh, India
hazar shama farozan ho raushni ke liye
gham-e-KHamosh jo ba-ashk-chakan rakhta hun
ek daman-e-rangin lahraya masti si faza mein chha hi gai
sahar aur sham se kuchh yun guzarta ja raha hun main
bhala kab dekh sakta hun ki gham nakaam ho jae
dhaDkanen dil ki gine KHun mein rawani mange
haqiqat jis jagah hoti hai tabani batati hai
mera dil na tha alam-ashna ki teri ada pe nazar paDi
tajalliyon se gham-e-etibar le ke uTha
taghayyuraat ke aalam mein zindagani hai
pankhuDi koi gulistan se saba kya lai
dil-o-dilbar sahi ab KHwab se bedar hain donon
yunhi Thahar Thahar ke main rota chala gaya
apni duniya KHud ba-faiz-e-gham bana sakta hun main
ye nim-baz teri ankhDiyon ke maiKHane
