yaar kaa kucha hai masjud-e-khalaaiq dekh le — Qasim Ali Khan Afridi

shaikh mujh ko na Daraa apni musalmaani thaam
ham faqiron kaa kisi rang se imaan na jaae

nargisi chashm dikhaa kar ke vo vahshat-zada yaar
ye gayaa vo gayaa jis tarah ghazaal aap se aap

bas nahin chaltaa hai varna apne mar jaane ke saath
pheink dete khod kar duniyaa ki sab buniyaad ham

lab-e-shirin se agar ho na teraa lab shirin
kohkan tu bhi to ab daaman-e-kohsaar na chhoD

mujhe khushi ki giraftaar main huaa teraa
to shaad ho ki hai aisaa shikaar asiir miraa

khudaa ko sajda kar ke mubtazil zaahid huaa ab to
to jaa kar mah-jabin ke aastaan pe jubba-saai kar

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

ham ko yaaron ne yaad bhi na rakhaa
'jaun' yaaron ke yaar the ham to

ai dost is zamaan-o-makaan ke azaab mein
dushman hai jo kisi ko duaa-e-hayaat de

tikhe to ho pa sach kaho us vaqt kyaa karo
tum ko gale lagaa le agar pyaar se koi

idhar aa ham dikhaate hain ghazal kaa aaina tujh ko
ye kis ne kah diyaa gesu tire barham nahin pyaare

dushmanon se pashemaan honaa paDaa hai
doston kaa khulus aazmaane ke baad
