wohi jhuki hui belen wohi daricha tha
magar wo phul-sa chehara nazar na aata tha
main laut aaya hun khamoshiyon ke sahara se
vahan bhi teri sada ka gubar phaila tha
qarib tair raha tha baton ka ek joda
main aabju ke kinare udas baitha tha
bani nahi jo kaheen par kali ke turbat thi
suna nahi jo kisi ne hawa ka nauha tha
ye aadi-tirchi lakiren bana gaya hai kon
main kya kahun ki mere dil ka varaq to sada tha
udhar se barha guzra magar khabar na hui
ki zer-e-sang khunuk paniyon ka chashma tha
wo us ka aks-e-badan tha ki chandani ka kanval
vi nili jhil thi ya aasaman ka tukada tha

Poet of the Poem/Ghazal or Nazam:  Shakeb Jalali

sirf lahara ke rah gaya aanchal
rang ban kar bikhar gaya koi
gardish-e-khun ragon mein tez hui
dil ko chukar guzar gaya koi
phul se khil gaye tasavvur mein
daman-e-shauq bhar gaya koi

Poet of the Poem / Ghazal or Nazam :Ali Sardar Jafri

Bat phoolon ke suna karate the
hum kabhi sher kaha karate the

mashalen leke tumhare gam ke
hum andheron mein chala karate the

ab kahan aisi tabiyat vale
chot kha kar jo dua karate the

tark-e-ehasas-e-muhabbat mushkil
han magar ahal-e-vafa karate the

bikhari bikhari zulfon vale
qafile rok liya karate the

aj gulshan mein shaguf-e-sagar
shikave bad-e-saba se karate the

Poet of the Poem / Ghazal or Nazam : Sagar Siddiqui

chand se phul se ya meri zuban se suniye
har taraf aap ka qisa jahan se suniye

sab ko aata hai duniya ko sata kar jina
zindagi kya muhabbat ke dua se suniye

meri aavaz parda mere chehare ka
main hun khamosh jahan mujhako vahan se suniye

kya zaruri hai ki har parda uthaya jaye
mere halat apne apne makan se suniye

Poet of the poem/ghazal or nazam : Nida Fazli

Barish hui to phoolon ke tan chak ho gaye
mausam ke hath bhig ke saffak ho gaye

badal ko kya khabar ki barish ke chah mein
kitane buland-o-bala shajar khak ho gaye

juganu ko din ke vaqt pakadane ke zid karen
bache hamare ahad ke chalak ho gaye

lahara rahi hai barf ke chadar hata ke ghas
suraj ke shah pe tinake bhi bebak ho gaye

suraj dimag log bhi iblag-e-fikr mein
zulf-e-shab-e-firaq ke pechak ho gaye

jab bhi garib-e-shahar se kuch guftagu hui
lahaje hava-e-sham ke namnak ho gaye

sahil pe jitne aabguzida the sab ke sab
dariya ke rukh badalate hi tairak ho gaye

Poet of the Poem / Ghazal or Nazam : Parveen Shakir

Jo Teer Bhi Aata Vo Khaali Nahi Jaata
Maayoos Mere Dar Se Savaali Nahi Jaata
Are Kaante Hi Kiya Karate Hain Phoolon Ki Hifaazat
Phoolon Ko Bachane Koi Maali Nahi Jaata.

Dushmano Me Bhi Dost Milaa Karte Hai
Kaanto Me Bhi Phool Khila Karte Hai
Humko Kanta Samajh Kar Chod Na Dena
Kaante Bhi Phoolon Ki Hifazat Kiya Karte Hai

Tumhari Is Ada Ka Kya Jawaab Du
Apna Dost Ko Uphaar Kya Du
Koi Acchha Sa Phool Hota Toh Mali Se Mangva Lete
Jo Khud Gulaab Ho., Usko Kya Gulaab Du
