raqam itni ikaTThi ho gai thi
magar wo chiz mahngi ho gai thi
hum itni garm-joshi se mile the
hamari chae ThanDi ho gai thi
tumhaare baad jitna roe the hum
tabiat utni achchhi ho gai thi
samajh kar hum dawai pi gae the
tumhaari baat kaDwi ho gai thi
palaT aana hi banta tha wahan se
hamare sath jitni ho gai thi
hui thi der se hum ko mohabbat
hamari jald shadi ho gai thi
sabhi mahbub uTh kar ja rahe the
kahani itni lambi ho gai thi
Ghazal
Raqam itni ikaTThi ho gai thi
Khalid Mahboob
