mai mile ya na mile rasm nibha li jae
KHali botal hai to KHali hi uchhaali jae
hum bhi hain sina-sipar aap bhi shamshir-ba-kaf
baat to jab hai koi war na KHali jae
ghar ke aangan mein tassub ki ye saDti hui lash
kitne din bit gae ab to uTha li jae
kya tajjub hai ki kuchh sote hue jag uThen
suni basti mein ek aawaz laga li jae
kal jo aaen wo andheron mein na bhaTken 'rahi'
lao ek sham sar-e-rah jala li jae
Ghazal
Mai mile ya na mile rasm nibha li jae
Rahi Shahabi
