begana mile hai jab mile hain
yaron se hamein bahut gile hain
yaad aae hain doston ke mele
jab phul chaman chaman khile hain
shaki hun main jin ki be-ruKHi ka
akasr wahi be-matlab mile hain
ye dagh ye zaKHm be-kasi ke
shayad teri chah ke sile hain
is tarah chhuTi ki phir na aai
hum ko teri yaad se gile hain
guzre hain nazar bacha ke 'shafqat'
wo rah mein jab kabhi mile hain
Ghazal
Begana mile hai jab mile hain
Shafqat Kazmi
