raunaqen ab bhi kiwaDon mein chhupi lagti hain
mahfilen ab bhi usi tarah saji lagti hain
raushni ab bhi daraazon se umaD aati hai
khiDkiyan ab bhi sadaon se khuli lagti hain
saaten jo teri qurbat mein giran guzri thin
dur se dekhun to ab wo bhi bhali lagti hain
ab bhi kuchh log sunate hain sunae hue sher
baaten ab bhi teri zehnon mein basi lagti hain
Ghazal
Raunaqen ab bhi kiwaDon mein chhupi lagti hain
Zehra Nigaah
