husn hi ke dam se hain ye kahaniyan sari
ishq hi sikhata hai KHush-bayaniyan sari
KHwab aur KHushbu ko chahaton ke jadu ko
qaid kar ke dikhlaen pasbaniyan sari
dil ki dhaDkanon par hai inhisar-e-afsana
ek si nahin hotin naujawaniyan sari
ek tabassum-e-pinhan ek nigah-e-duzdida
aur phir kahani thin sar-giraniyan sari
yaad ban ke pahlu mein mausamon ke bistar par
karwaTen badalti hain mehrbaniyan sari
kya ginaen ab tum ko han saja ke rakkhi hain
hum ne goshe goshe mein wo nishaniyan sari
Ghazal
Husn hi ke dam se hain ye kahaniyan sari
Akbar Ali Khan Arshi Zadah
