pyar ka ek pal sukun-e-zindagi de jaega
KHatm jo hone na pae wo KHushi de jaega
wo KHulus-o-mehr ka paikar banam-e-dostan
dushmanon ko bhi shuur-e-dosti de jaega
husn-e-fitrat jalwa-gar ho kar yaqinan ek din
rang kaliyon ko gulon ko dilkashi de jaega
aaega wo din hamari zindagi mein bhi zarur
jo andheron ko miTa kar raushni de jaega
wo bhi lamha aaega 'taban' rah-e-hasti mein jo
tere pazhmurda labon ko ko de jaega
Ghazal
Pyar ka ek pal sukun-e-zindagi de jaega
