bas ho chuka huzur ye parde haTaiye
sab muntazir hain samne tashrif laiye
aawaz mein to aap ki be-shak KHulus hai
lekin zara naqab to ruKH se haTaiye
hum mante hain aap baDe gham-gusar hain
lekin ye aastin mein kya hai dikhaiye
ab qafile ke log bhi manzil-shanas hain
aaKHir kahan ka qasd hai khul kar bataiye
baada-kashon ki asl jagah mai-kade mein hai
kis ne kaha ki aap bhi mimbar pe aaiye
Ghazal
Bas ho chuka huzur ye parde haTaiye
Iqbal Azeem
