parda-e-shab ki oT mein zohra-jamal kho gae
dil ka kanwal bujha to shahr tira-o-tar ho gae
ek hamein hi ai sahar nind na aai raat bhar
zanu-e-shab pe rakh ke sar sare charagh so gae
rah mein the babul bhi rud-e-sharar bhi dhul bhi
jaana hamein zarur tha gul ke tawaf ko gae
dida-waro bataen kya tum ko yaqin na aaega
chehre the jin ke chand se sine mein dagh bo gae
dagh-e-shikast dosto dekho kise nasib ho
baiThe hue hain tez-rau sust-KHiram to gae
ahl-e-junun ke dil 'shakeb' narm the mom ki tarah
tesha-e-yas jab chala tuda-e-sang ho gae
Ghazal
Parda-e-shab ki oT mein zohra-jamal kho gae
Shakeb Jalali
