Ballia, Uttar pradesh, India
hasti ka nazara kya kahiye marta hai koi jita hai koi
kis bebasi ke sath basar kar raha hai umr
haqiqat jis jagah hoti hai tabani batati hai
humne bhi nigahon se unhen chhu hi liya hai
gunahgar to rahmat ko munh dikha na saka
baDi hasrat se insan bachpane ko yaad karta hai
sarak kar aa gain zulfen jo in maKHmur aankhon tak
daulat ka falak toD ke aalam ki jabin par
ek nazar ka fasana hai duniya
zindagi qarib hai kis qadar jamal se
hai sham abhi kya hai bahki hui baaten hain
aghyar ko gul-pairahani humne ata ki
hum riwayat ko pighla ke nushur
saliqa jinko hota hai gham-e-dauran mein jine ka
anjam-e-wafa ye hai jis ne bhi mohabbat ki
