ai sail-e-ab Thahar ab ke gardanon tak rah
tanon ki taKHtiyan dhoni hain bas tanon tak rah
jahan hai shahr wahan dur tak darinde hain
ghazal, ghazal ke honTon pe aa banon tak rah
gali mein tak mein baiThe hain tifl-e-sang-ba-dast
ai meri KHwahish-e-ayyar aanganon tak rah
bahut se kaam hain jin se nipaTna baqi hai
visal-rut to baDi shai hai sawanon tak rah
hawa mein tir chalane se faeda 'jawed'
teri jab aankhen khuli hain to dushmanon tak rah
Ghazal
Ai sail-e-ab Thahar ab ke gardanon tak rah
