Ghazal – Ahmad Faraz
Aankh se door na ho dil se utar jaayega,
Waqt ka kya hai guzarta hai guzar jaayega.
Doobte doobte kashti ko uchhala de du’n,
Mai nahi koi toh sahil pe utar jaayega.
Zindagi teri ata hai toh ye jaanewale,
Teri bakhshish teri dehleez pe dhar jaayega.
Zabt lazim hai magar dukh hai qayamat ko ‘Faraz’,
Zalim ab ke bhi na royega toh mar jaayega.
