hui muddat ki ghalib mar gaya par yaad aata hai vo har ik baat par kehna ki yuñ hota to kya hota

ilaaj apna karate phir rahe ho jaane kis kis se mohabbat kar ke dekho na mohabbat kyun nahin karte

tum poochho aur main na bataaun aise to haalaat nahin ek zaraa sa dil toota hai aur to koi baat nahin

tum un ke wa'de ka zikr un se kyun karo ghalib ye kya ki tum kaho aur vo kahein ki yaad nahin

main jab mar jaaun to meri alag pahchaan likh dena lahu se meri peshaani pe hindustan likh dena

teri har ada hai dilkash teraa husn dilruba hai tujhe jab se maine dekha mujhe ishq ho gaya hai

ik taraf husn-e-tabassum ik taraf husn-e-hayaa aur us par jaan leva aapki angdaai hai

bayaan karna hai mushkil vo itne naazuk hain ki jaise hota hai ik dil vo itne naazuk hain sanbhaal paate nahin uskaa bojh bhi akshar jo leke aayen hain ik til vo itne naazuk hain

zabaan se apne na ham kahein kuchh na vo kahein kuchh nazar samajh le nazar ki harkat vo shayari hai

hamse jo door raha karte hain unko akshar dil ki awaaz sunaane ko ghazal kahte hai
