kis hasin KHwab ka fasana hai
zindagi dard ka tarana hai
sab ki nazron mein wo diwana hai
jis ka andaz shairana hai
maut hi zindagi ki manzil hai
zindagi maut ka bahana hai
muflison ka bhi aur shahon ka
qabr hi aaKHiri Thikana hai
zindagi hai koi hasin mahbub
jis ka andaz qatilana hai
mar chuki hai ye wasl ki hasrat
teri yaadon se dil lagana hai
ghuDkiyon aur galiyon ke siwa
kya gharibon ka mehnatana hai
mar gaya hai zamir logon ka
ye zamana bhi kya zamana hai
tu mujhe mat qubul kar lekin
tujh se rishta mera purana hai
baad marne ke qabr mein 'arif'
kaun apna hai aur begana hai
Ghazal
Kis hasin KHwab ka fasana hai
Syed Mohammad Askari Arif
