hila hai hawala hai
ye ishq nirala hai
shikwa bhi shikayat bhi
sab pyar ki mala hai
socho to faqat suraj
samjho to ujala hai
hai yaad wahi azbar
jo bhulne wala hai
bichhDe hue sathi hain
aur panw mein chhaala hai
haalat bhi pas-murda
honTon pe bhi tala hai
aaina tan-e-tanha
sach bolne wala hai
yaron ki mohabbat ne
'ashhad' ko sambhaala hai
Ghazal
Hila hai hawala hai
Ashhad Bilal Ibn-e-chaman
