wo meri jaan hai dil se kabhi juda na hua
ki us ka gham hi meri zist ka baha na hua
nazar ne jhuk ke kaha mujh se kya dam-e-ruKHsat
main sochta hun ki kis dil se wo rawana hua
nam-e-saba mai-e-mahtab itr-e-zulf-e-shamim
wo kya gaya ki koi karwan rawana hua
wo yaad yaad mein jhalka hai aaine ki tarah
is aaine mein kabhi apna samna na hua
wo chand saaten jo us ke sath guzri hain
unhi ka daur raha aur jawedana hua
main us ke hijr ki tarikiyon mein Duba tha
wo aaya ghar mein mere aur charagh-e-KHana hua
wo lauT aaya hai ya meri KHud-farebi hai
nigah kahti hai dekhe use zamana hua
main apne dard ki nisbat ko dil samajhta hun
qafas jo TuT gaya mera aashiyana hua
usi ki yaad hai sarmaya-e-hayat 'zafar'
nahin to mera hai kya main hua hua na hua
Ghazal
Wo meri jaan hai dil se kabhi juda na hua
Yusuf Zafar
