dard ghazal mein dhalne se katraata hai khali kaghaz meri hansi udata hai kis chahat se qalam pakad kar baithe the ab to ek bhi lafz nahin ban aata hai aadi-tirchhi lakiron se kab baat bani shauq andha hai hawa pe naqsh banata hai kis ki sadaen mera taaqub karti hain des nikale shakhs ko kaun bulata hai yaaden tisen si ban kar rah jati hain guzra mausam phir kab laut ke aata hai kis ka rasta dekh rahe hain ghar ke kiwad suna suna aangan kise bulata hai kin kin sahraon ki khak udani padi dil bhi kaise kaise nach bachata hai jhuti sachchi jo ji chahe kahte jao kaun kisi ke dil mein utra jata hai waqt ki baat hai pyare chahe man na man mitha kadwa sab sunna pad jata hai mere aage bhag rahe hain chand 'riyaz' mere pichhe mera saya aata hai
