na puchho wajh meri chashm-e-tar ki
miyan phir gir gai diwar ghar ki
ye mana dhul gaya suraj saron se
mere aangan ki dhup ab tak na sar ki
jabin tar KHushk-lab talwon mein chhaale
yahi rudad hai apne safar ki
badi neki izafi masale hain
hukumat hai dilon par sirf Dar ki
gumanon ka muqaddar hai bhaTakta
yaqin ne har muhim duniya ki sar ki
na saya hai na shaKHon mein samar hain
zarurat kya hai ab sukhe shajar ki
jhulasti dhup barish sard raaten
ba-har-surat 'ziya' hum ne basar ki
Ghazal
Na puchho wajh meri chashm-e-tar ki
Bakhtiyar Ziya
