ye jo suraj hai ye suraj bhi kahan tha pahle
barf se uThta hua ek dhuan tha pahle
mujh se aabaad hui hai teri duniya warna
is KHarabe mein koi aur kahan tha pahle
ek hi daere mein qaid hain hum log yahan
ab jahan tum ho koi aur wahan tha pahle
us ko hum jaise kai mil gae majnun warna
ishq logon ke liye kar-e-ziyan tha pahle
ye jo ab ret nazar aata hai afzal 'gauhar'
isi dariya mein kabhi aab-e-rawan tha pahle
Ghazal
Ye jo suraj hai ye suraj bhi kahan tha pahle
Afzal Gauhar Rao
