kya manzil-e-gham simaT gai hai
ek aah mein rah kaT gai hai
phir samne hai pahaD si raat
phir sham se nind uchaT gai hai
pahlu mein ye kaisa dard uTha hai
ye kaun si rah kaT gai hai
aap aae nahin to maut kambaKHt
aa aa ke palaT palaT gai hai
uTh uTh ke mariz-e-gham ne puchha
kya hijr ki raat kaT gai hai
phir 'saif' hawa-e-yaad-e-rafta
har gham ki naqab ulaT gai hai
Ghazal
Kya manzil-e-gham simaT gai hai
