itna pur-josh mere dard ka dhaara to na tha
kya pas-e-parda kahin qurb tumhaara to na tha
tum ne alqab badal kar mujhe maktub likha
us taghayyur mein kahin talKH ishaara to na tha
lazima qat-e-marasim se ye tafriq hui
warna ye ishq mujhe aap se pyara to na tha
baal khole hue kyun aa gae parde ke qarib
main nai aawaz sunai thi pukara to na tha
hum to mauzun the kisi aalam-e-ulfat ke liye
zar ki duniya mein 'jali' kaam hamara to na tha
Ghazal
Itna pur-josh mere dard ka dhaara to na tha
