meri sham-e-gham ko wo bahla rahe hain
likha hai ye KHat mein ki hum aa rahe hain
Thahar ja zara aur ai dard-e-furqat
hamare tasawwur mein wo aa rahe hain
gham-e-aqibat hai na fikr-e-zamana
piye ja rahe hain jiye ja rahe hain
nahin shikwa-e-tishnagi mai-kashon ko
wo aankhon se mai-KHane barsa rahe hain
wo rashk-e-bahaar aane wala hai 'aKHtar'
kanwal hasraton ke khile ja rahe hain
Ghazal
Meri sham-e-gham ko wo bahla rahe hain
Akhtar Shirani
