zara nigah uThao ki gham ki raat kaTe


zarā nigāh uThāo ki ġham kī raat kaTe
nazar nazar se milāo ki ġham kī raat kaTe

ab aa ga.e ho to mere qarīb aa baiTho
duī ke naqsh miTāo ki ġham kī raat kaTe

shab-e-firāq hai sham-e-umīd le aao
koī charāġh jalāo ki ġham kī raat kaTe

kahāñ haiñ sāqī-o-mutrib kahāñ hai pīr-e-haram
kahāñ haiñ sab ye bulāo ki ġham kī raat kaTe

kahāñ ho mai-kade vaalo zarā idhar aao
hameñ bhī aaj pilāo ki ġham kī raat kaTe

nahīñ kuchh aur jo mumkin to yaar 'shola' kī
koī ġhazal hī sunāo ki ġham kī raat kaTe

zara nigah uThao ki gham ki raat kaTe
nazar nazar se milao ki gham ki raat kaTe

ab aa gae ho to mere qarib aa baiTho
dui ke naqsh miTao ki gham ki raat kaTe

shab-e-firaq hai sham-e-umid le aao
koi charagh jalao ki gham ki raat kaTe

kahan hain saqi-o-mutrib kahan hai pir-e-haram
kahan hain sab ye bulao ki gham ki raat kaTe

kahan ho mai-kade walo zara idhar aao
hamein bhi aaj pilao ki gham ki raat kaTe

nahin kuchh aur jo mumkin to yar 'shola' ki
koi ghazal hi sunao ki gham ki raat kaTe
