waqt jaisa hai ba-har-taur guzar jaana hai
aaj jo zinda haqiqat hai kal afsana hai
kab jali sham-e-tamanna hamein kuchh yaad nahin
itna malum hai jal kar use bujh jaana hai
meri wahshat ne abhi panw nikale bhi na the
dil-e-be-tab ne zid ki mujhe ghar jaana hai
wa agar bab-e-murawwat ko nahin hai hona
aaj hi kah den jo kal aap ko farmana hai
gardish-e-waqt ka ye jabr hai shayad jo log
subh zinda hain magar sham ko mar jaana hai
chashm-e-bina pe lagi tohmat nazzara yunhi
had-e-idrak talak tar-e-nazar jaana hai
gharq hona na kahin KHwab-e-faramoshi mein
munh andhere hi tumhein 'rahi' agar jaana hai
Ghazal
Waqt jaisa hai ba-har-taur guzar jaana hai
Syed Nawab Haider Naqvi Rahi
