gham ki barish ne bhi tere naqsh ko dhoya nahi
tune mujh ko kho diya main ne tujhe khoya nahi
neend ka halka gulabi-sa khumar aankhon mein tha
yun laga jaise wo shab ko der tak soya nahi
har taraf divar-o-dar aur un mein aankhon ka hujum
kah sake jo dil ki halat wo lab-e-goya nahi
jurm aadam ne kiya aur nasl-e-adam ko saza
katata hun zindagi bhar main ne jo boya nahi
janata hun ek aise shakhs ko main bhi ‘munir’
gham se pathar ho gaya lekin kabhi roya nahi

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Munir Niazi

meri vadi mein wo ik din yun hi aa nikali thi
rang aur nur ka bahata hua dhara ban kar
mahafil-e-shauq mein ik dhum macha di us ne
khalvat-e-dil mein rahi anjuman-ara ban kar

shola-e-ishq sar-e-arsh ko jab chune laga
ud gai wo mere sine se sharara ban kar
aur ab mere tasavvur ka ufaq roshan hai
wo chamakati hai jahan gham ka sitara ban kar

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Ali Sardar Jafri

gham ka khazana tera bhi hai mera bhi
ye nazarana tera bhi hai mera bhi
apne gham ko geet banake ga lena
rag purana tera bhi hai mera bhi
tu mujhko aur main tujh ko samjahaun kya
dil divana tera bhi hai mera bhi
shahron shahron galiyon jis ka charcha hai
wo afsana tera bhi hai mera bhi
maikhane ki bat na kar waiz mujh se
aana jana tera bhi hai mera bhi

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Shahid Kabir

gham chupate rahe muskurate rahe
mahafilon mahafilon gungunate rahe
aansuon se likhi dil ki taharir ko
phul ki pattiyon se sajate rahe
gazalen kumhala gain nazmen murjha gain
geet sanvala gaye saz chup ho gaye
phir bhi ahal-e-chaman kitne khushzauq the
nagma-e-fasl-e-gul gungunate rahe
teri sanson ki khushbu labon ki mahak
jane kaise havayen uda lain thi
waqt ka har qadam bhi bahakata raha
zaqt le panv bhi dagmagate rahe

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Bashir Badr

gam-e-hayat ka jagada mita raha hai koi
chale bhi aao ki duniya se ja raha hai koi

kaho ajal se zara do ghadi thahar jaye
suna hai aane ka wada nibha raha hai koi

wo aj lipate hain kis nazuki se lashe ko
ki jaise ruthon huon ko mana raha hai koi

kaheen palat ki na aa jaye sans nabzon mein
hasin hathon se mayyat saja raha hai koi

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Sardar Anjum

gam-e-ashiqi se kah do rah-e-am tak na pahunche
mujhe khauf hai ye tohamat mere naam tak na pahunche
main nazar se pee raha tha to ye dil ne bad-dua di
tera hath zindagi bhar kabhi jam tak na pahunche
nai subah par nazar hai magar aah ye bhi dar hai
ye sahar bhi rafta rafta kaheen sham tak na pahunche
wo nava-e-muzamahil kya na ho jis mein dil ki dhadakan
wo sada-e-ahale-dil kya jo avam tak na pahunche
unhen apne dil ki khabaren mere dil se mil rahi hain
main jo unase ruth jaun to payam tak na pahunche
ye ada-e-beniazi tujhe bevafa mubarak
magar aisi berukhi kya ki salam tak na pahunche
jo naqab-e-rukh utha di to ye qaid bhi laga di
uthe har nigah lekin koi bam tak na pahunche
wohi ik khamosh nagma hai “shakeel” jan-e-hasti
jo zuban tak na aaye jo qalam tak na pahunche

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Shakeel Badayuni

gham bade aate hain qatil ki nigahon ki tarah
tum chipa lo mujhe, ae dost, gunahon ki tarah
apni nazaron mein gunahagar na hote, kyon kar
dil hi dushman hain mukhalif ki gvahon ki tarah
har taraf zist ki rahon mein kadi dhup hai dost
bas teri yaad ki saye hain panahon ki tarah
jinake khatir kabhi ilzam uthaye, ‘fakir’
wo bhi pesh aaye hain insaf ki shahon ki tarah

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Sudarshan Faakir

gale laga ki jo sunate the dil ki aahon ko
taras raha hun unhin ki hasin bahon ko
qadam qadam pe wo aankhen bicha bicha dena
zarur yaad to hoga tumhari rahon ko
duhai hai teri ae rahazan duhai hai
ki aj lut liya rahabar ne rahon ko
mile na phir tere daman mein daag un ki ‘shamim’
sharab-e-nab se dhoya hai jin ki aahon ko

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Shamim Jaipuri
