raat mili tanhai mili aur jam mila
ghar se nikle to kya kya aaram mila
ek bahut hi bojhal sham ke aate hi
sune dil ko yaadon ka kohram mila
wahi mohalla wahi purana ghar tha wahan
darwaze par lekin aur hi nam mila
kaam ki KHatir din-bhar dauD lagate hain
bekari mein aaKHir kuchh to kaam mila
mila na 'alwi' nam adab ke daftar mein
panch baras chup rahne ka inam mila
Ghazal
Raat mili tanhai mili aur jam mila
Mohammad Alvi
