tu jo aabaad hai ai dost mere dil ke qarib
meri manzil bhi hai goya teri manzil ke qarib
Dub jate hain talatum mein safine akasr
Dubta aur hi kuchh baat hai sahil ke qarib
uTh gaya duri-e-manzil ki thakan ka ehsas
rah kuchh aur kaThin ho gai manzil ke qarib
maut har bar rihai mein meri manea hui
le gai zist to akasr mujhe qatil ke qarib
'soz' KHud un ki KHalish rashk-e-masihai hai
zaKHm aise bhi shagufta hain mere dil ke qarib
Ghazal
Tu jo aabaad hai ai dost mere dil ke qarib
Abdul Malik Soz
