saz-e-furqat pe ghazal gao ki kuchh raat kaTe
pyar ki rasm ko chamkao ki kuchh raat kaTe
jab ye tai hai ki gham-e-ishq bahut kafi hai
gham ka mafhum hi samjhao ki kuchh raat kaTe
subh ke sath hi hum KHud bhi bikhar jaenge
do-ghaDi aur Thahar jao ki kuchh raat kaTe
daman-e-dard pe bikhre hue aansu ki tarah
meri palkon pe bhi lahrao ki kuchh raat kaTe
zikr-e-gulzar sahi qissa-e-dil-dar sahi
zaKHm ke phul hi mahkao ki kuchh raat kaTe
ek ek dard ke sine mein utar kar dekho
ek ek sans mein lahrao ki kuchh raat kaTe
dil ki wadi mein hai tarik ghaTaon ka hujum
chandni ban ke nikhar jao ki kuchh raat kaTe
qatil-e-shahr se bach kar main abhi aaya hun
main akela hun chale aao ki kuchh raat kaTe
farsh kirnon ka bichha degi sahar aa ke 'rais'
dil ke zaKHmon ko bhi chamkao ki kuchh raat kaTe
Ghazal
Saz-e-furqat pe ghazal gao ki kuchh raat kaTe
