Ghazal 16
Sher 10
kise dost apnā banā.eñ ham kise dil kā haal sunā.eñ ham
sabhī ġhair haiñ sabhī ajnabī tire gaañv meñ mire shahr meñ
kise dost apna banaen hum kise dil ka haal sunaen hum
sabhi ghair hain sabhi ajnabi tere ganw mein mere shahr mein
is se baḌh kar tirī yādoñ kī karūñ kyā tāzīm
terī yādoñ meñ zamāne ko bhulā rakkhā hai
is se baDh kar teri yaadon ki karun kya tazim
teri yaadon mein zamane ko bhula rakkha hai
ghar kī vīrāniyāñ le jaa.e churā kar koī
isī ummīd pe darvāza khulā rakkhā hai
ghar ki viraniyan le jae chura kar koi
isi ummid pe darwaza khula rakkha hai
