jab tak khuli nahin thi asrar lag rahi thi
ye zindagi mujhe bhi dushwar lag rahi thi
mujh par jhuki hui thi phulon ki ek Dali
lekin wo mere sar par talwar lag rahi thi
chhute hi jaane kaise qadmon mein aa giri wo
jo fasle se unchi diwar lag rahi thi
shahron mein aa ke kaise aahista-rau hua main
sahra mein tez apni raftar lag rahi thi
lahron ke jagne par kuchh bhi na kaam aai
kya chiz thi jo mujh ko patwar lag rahi thi
ab kitni kar-amad jangal mein lag rahi hai
wo raushni jo ghar mein bekar lag rahi thi
TuTa hua hai shayad wo bhi hamare jaisa
aawaz us ki jaise jhankar lag rahi thi
'alam' ghazal mein Dhal kar kya KHub lag rahi hai
jo Tis mere dil ka aazar lag rahi thi
Ghazal
Jab tak khuli nahin thi asrar lag rahi thi
Alam Khursheed
