hum aaj bazm-e-raqiban se surKH-ru aae
ye hai ajib ki ab wo bhi hu-ba-hu aae
hai kaun yan jo nahin jam-o-mai ka shaidai
ye kab ho aap hi chal kar kahin subu aae
sabhi ne jaan di teri gali mein ai hamdam
kise majal ki ab tere ru-ba-ru aae
tere firaq mein hum ne bahae ashk-e-jigar
ye sab ne chaha magar aae to lahu aae
hai ab kahan wo wafa aur wo wafa kaisi
wo aur waqt tha hum dekh ku-ba-ku aae
Ghazal
Hum aaj bazm-e-raqiban se surKH-ru aae
Akhlaq Ahmad Ahan
