Lahu na ho to kalam tarajuman nahi hota
hamare daur mein aansu zuban nahi hota
jahan rahega waheen roshni lutayega
kisi charag ka apna makan nahi hota
ye kis maqam pe lai hai meri tanahai
ke mujh se aj koi badguman nahi hota
main us ko bhool gaya hun ye kon manega
kisi charag ke bas mein dhuan nahi hota
‘wasim’ sadiyon ke aankhon se dekhiye mujh ko
wo lafz hun jo kabhi dastan nahi hota
Poet of the Poem / Ghazal or Nazam : Wasim Barelvi
Itna to zindagi mein kisi ke khalal pade
hansane se ho sukun na rone se kal pade
jis tarah hans raha hun main pi-pi ke ashk-e-gam
yun dusara hanse to kaleja nikal pade
ek tum ke tum ko fikr-e-nasheb-o-faraz hai
ek hum ke chal pade to baharahal chal pade
muddat ke bad us ne jo ke lutf ke nigah
jee khush to ho gaya magar aansu nikal pade
saqi sabhi ko hai gam-e-tashnalabi magar
may hai usi ke naam pe jis ke ubal pade
Poet of the Poem / Ghazal or Nazam : Kaifi Azmi
jahan main jaun hawa ka yahi ishara ho
koi nahi jo yahan muntazir tumhara ho
meri bujhati hui aankhon ko roshni bakhshe
wo phul jo tere chehare ka ista’ara ho
chala hun apni hi aavaz-e-bazgasht pe yun
kisi ne dur se jaise mujhe pukara ho
ganva chuke kai umren ummidvar tere
kahan tak aur teri berukhi gavara ho
tu pas aate huye mujh se dur ho jaye
ajab nahi ki yahi hadasa dobara ho
nazar farebi-e-rang-e-chaman se bach ‘makhmoor’
jise tu phul samajh le kaheen sharara ho
Poet of the Poem / Ghazal or Nazam :Makhmoor Saeedi
