ek hum hi to nahin aabla-pa aawara
nighat-e-gul bhi hui baad-e-saba aawara
ye kahin umr-e-guzishta to nahin tum to nahin
koi phirta hai sar-e-shahr-e-wafa aawara
kaun manzil ki KHabar de kise manzil ki KHabar
rah-rau aabla-pa rah-numa aawara
dil dhaDakta hai sar-e-sham ki guzrega abhi
wadi-e-shab se koi naghma-sara aawara
ab koi kis se kahe kaifiyyat-e-zaKHm-e-bahaar
sabza begana hai gul chup hain saba aawara
Ghazal
Ek hum hi to nahin aabla-pa aawara
Akhtar Hoshiyarpuri
