  • Ghazal


aahaT pe kan dar pe nazar is tarah na thi


aahaT pe kaan dar pe nazar is tarah na thī
ek ek pal kī ham ko ḳhabar is tarah na thī

thā dil meñ dard pahle bhī lekin na is qadar
vīrāñ to thī hayāt magar is tarah na thī

har ek moḌ maqtal-e-ārmān-o-ārzū
pahle to terī rāhguzar is tarah na thī

jab tak sabā ne chheḌā na thā nik.hat-e-gulāb
kūcha-ba-kūcha mahv-e-safar is tarah na thī

barsoñ meñ pahle hotī thī nam āstīñ kabhī
arzāñ matā-e-dīda-e-tar is tarah na thī

aahaT pe kan dar pe nazar is tarah na thi
ek ek pal ki hum ko KHabar is tarah na thi

tha dil mein dard pahle bhi lekin na is qadar
viran to thi hayat magar is tarah na thi

har ek moD maqtal-e-arman-o-arzu
pahle to teri rahguzar is tarah na thi

jab tak saba ne chheDa na tha nikhat-e-gulab
kucha-ba-kucha mahw-e-safar is tarah na thi

barson mein pahle hoti thi nam aastin kabhi
arzan mata-e-dida-e-tar is tarah na thi
