Ballia, Uttar pradesh, India
aaghosh-e-rang-o-bu ke fasane mein kuchh nahin
tez-tar lahja-e-guftar kiya hai humne
yaad aati rahi bhula na sake
maine kabhi nazar na ki dil-kashi-e-hayat par
kitna ajib-tar hai ye rabt-e-zindagani
husn jitna hi sada hota hai
nai duniya mujassam dilkashi malum hoti hai
qamat-e-dil-ruba par shabab aa gaya
zahid asir-e-gesu-e-jaanan na ho saka
dil hai ki mohabbat mein apna na paraya hai
pankhuDi koi gulistan se saba kya lai
mai-KHane mein baDhti gai tafriq-e-nihan aur
main shad hun to zamane mein shadmani hai
hath se duniya nikalti jaegi
waqt ka qafila aata hai guzar jata hai
