ghanghor ghaTa ke aanchal ko jab kali raat nichoD gai
ek tanhai ko chain mila ek tanhai dam toD gai
ai waqt ke andhe rakhwalo ye raaz to hum bhi jaante hain
be-wajh tumhaari aankhon se kyun binai munh moD gai
ek wo bhi safina tha apna jo sahil sahil ghum gaya
ek ye bhi hamari kashti hai jo lahron mein sar phoD gai
har chand nazar ne taron par shab-KHun to mara hai lekin
ye raat sahar ke daman par kuchh dagh lahu ke chhoD gai
insan ka raushan mustaqbil jis waqt charagh-e-rah bana
har manzil apne qadmon se tariKH ka nata joD gai
Ghazal
Ghanghor ghaTa ke aanchal ko jab kali raat nichoD gai
