dard jab shaeri mein dhalte hain
dil mein har-su charagh julte hain

koi shai ek si nahin rahti
umr dhalti hai gham badalte hain

jo nahin mangta kisi se kuchh
shahr ke log us se jalte hain

us ki manzil juda hamari juda
aaj go sath sath chalte hain

lucknow shaeri sharab junun
rishte sau tarah ke nikalte hain
