chup-chap nikal aae the sahra ki taraf hum
chalte hue kya dekhte duniya ki taraf hum
pamal kiye jati hai is waste duniya
baiThe hain tere naqsh-e-kaf-e-pa ki taraf hum
kis pyas se KHali hua mashkiza hamara
dariya se jo uTh aae hain sahra ki taraf hum
kya chahti hai niyyat-e-bazar-e-zamana
khinchte chale jate hain jo ashiya ki taraf hum
ye ajnabi logon ki zara bhiD chhaTe to
jaenge kisi apne shanasa ki taraf hum
'gauhar' ye zamin hum ko bahut yaad karegi
uTh jaenge jab aalam-e-baala ki taraf hum
Ghazal
Chup-chap nikal aae the sahra ki taraf hum
Afzal Gauhar Rao
