aste mein un ko chheD ke khate hain galiyan
bazar ki miThai bhi hoti hai kya laziz
Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq
ahaar aate hi zaKHm-e-dil hare sab ho gae mere
udhar chaTka koi ghuncha idhar TuTa har ek Tanka
Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq
dil KHasta ho to lutf uThe kuchh apni ghazal ka
matlab koi kya samjhega maston ki zaTal ka
Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq
dast-e-junun ne phaD ke phenka idhar-udhar
daman abad mein hai to gareban azal mein hai
Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq
chheDa agar mere dil-e-nalan ko aap ne
phir bhul jaiyega bajaana sitar ka
Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq
chala hai chhoD ke tanha kidhar tasawwur-e-yar
shab-e-firaq mein tha tujh se mashghala dil ka
Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq
ut-parasti mein bhi bhuli na mujhe yaad-e-KHuda
hath mein subha gale mein mere zunnar raha
Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq
e-sabab ghunche chaTakte nahin gulzaron mein
phir raha hai ye DhinDhora teri ranai ka
Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq
e-abr rind pite nahin waizo sharab
karte hain ye gunah bhi rahmat ke zor pa
Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq
