na shab-o-roz hi badle hain na haal achchha hai

na shab-o-roz hi badle hain na haal achchha hai
kis barahman ne kaha tha ki ye sal achchha hai
hum ki donon ke giraftar rahe jaante hain
dam-e-duniya se kahin zulf ka jal achchha hai


main ne puchha tha ki aakhir ye taghaful kab tak
muskuraate hue bole ki sawal achchha hai
lazzaten qurb-o-judai ki hain apni apni
mustaqil hijr hi achchha na visal achchha hai


rahrawan-e-rah-eulfat ka muqaddar malum
in ka aaghaz hi achchha na maal achchha hai
dosti apni jagah par ye haqiqat hai 'faraaz'
teri ghazlon se kahin tera ghazal achchha hai
