gila tere firaq ka jo aaj-kal nahin raha
to kyun bhala ye mustaqil azab Tal nahin raha
main kis se iltija karun kahan se ibtida karun
dua ahal rahi nahin gila badal nahin raha
main raston ki bhiD mein kahan ye aa gaya ki ab
koi bhi rasta teri gali nikal nahin raha
wo naqsh-e-pa ko dekh kar chala ho mujh ko DhunDne
isi guman ke ewaz main tez chal nahin raha
faqat yahi hai aarzu tu mil kahin to ru-ba-ru
ye dil tere firaq mein kahin sambhal nahin raha
Ghazal
Gila tere firaq ka jo aaj-kal nahin raha
Arif Ishtiaque
