gurub-e-sham hi se khud ko yun mahasus karta hun
ki jaise ik diya hun aur hawa ke zad pe rakha hun
chamakati dhup tum apne hi daman mein na bhar lena
main sari raat pedon ke tarah barish mein bhiga hun
koi tuta hua rishta na daman se ulajh jaye
tumhare sath pahali bar bazaron mein nikala hun
ye kis aavaz ka bosa mere honton pe kanpa hai
main pichali shab sadaon ke halavat bhool baitha hun
bichad ke tum se main ne bhi koi sathi nahi dhundha
hujum-e-rahguzar mein dur tak dekho akela hun

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Zubair Rizvi

main kachi neend mein hun
aur apne nimkhvabida tanaffus mein utarati
chandani ke chap sunati hun
guman hai
aj bhi shayad
mere mathe pe tere lab
sitare sabat karte hain

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Parveen Shakir

kheton mein kam karati hui ladakiyan
jeth ke champai dhup ne
jin ka sona badan
surmai kar diya
jin ko raton mein os aur pale ka bistar mile
din ko suraj saron par jale
ye hare laun mein
sang-e-marmar ke benchon pe baithi hui
un hansi muraton se kaheen khubasurat
kaheen mukhtalif
jin ke jude mein juhi ke kaliyan sajin
jo gulab aur bele ke khushbu liye
aur rangon ke hiddat se pagal phiren
khet mein dhup chunati hui ladakiyan bhi
nai umr ke sabz dahaliz par hain magar
aaaina tak nahi dekhatin
y gulab aur dezi ke hiddat se naashna
khushbuon ke jan lams se bekhabar
phul chunati hain lekin pahanati nahi
in ke malabus mein
tez sarson ke phoolon ke bas
un ke aankhon mein roshan kapas

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam:Ishrat Afreen

go zara si baat par barason ke yarane gaye
lekin itna to hua kuch log pahachane gaye
garmi-e-mahafil faqat ik nara-e-mastana hai
aur wo khush hain ki is lahafil se divane gaye
main ise shoharat kahun ya apni ruswai kahun
mujhase pahale us gali mein mere afasane gaye
yun to wo meri rag-e-jan se bhi the nazadik tar
aansuon ke dhundh mein lekin na pahachane gaye
vahashaten kuch is tarah apana muqadar ho gain
hum jahan pahunche hamare sath virane gaye
ab bhi un yadon ke khushbu zehan mein mahafus hai
barha hum jin se gulazaron ko mahakane gaye
kya qayamat hai ki ‘khatir’ kushta-e-shab bhi the hum
subh jab hui to mujarim hum hi gardane gaye

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Khatir Ghaznavi

gesu-e- tabadar ko aur bhi tabadar kar
hosh-o-khirad shikar kar qalb-o-nazar shikar kar
tu hai mahit-e-bekaran main zara si aabaju
ya mujhe ham-kinar kar ya mujhe be-kinar kar
main hun sadaf to tere hath mere gohar ke aabaru
main hun khazaf to tu mujhe gauhar-e-shahawar kar
nagma-e-naubahar agar mere nasib mein na ho
is dam e nim soz ko tairak-e-bahar kar
ishq bhi ho hijab mein husn bhi ho hijab mein
ya tu khud aashakar ho ya mujh ko aashakar kar
bag-e-bahisht se mujhe hukm-e-safar diya tha kyon
kar-e-jahan daraz hai ab mera intazar kar
roz-e-hisab jab pesh ho mera daftar-e-amal
aap bhi sharmasar ho, mujh ko bhi sharmsar kar

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Allama Iqbal

garmi-e-shauq-e-nazzara ka asar to dekho
gul khile jate hain wo saya-e-dar to dekho
aise nadan to na the jan se guzaranevale
nasiho, rahabar-o-rahaguzar to dekho
wo to wo hain tumhen ho jayegi ulfat mujhase
ek nazar tum mera mahabub-e-nazar to dekho
wo jo ab chak gareban bhi nahi karte hain
dekhanevalo kabhi un ka jigar to dekho
daman-e-dard ko gulazar bana rakha hai
aao ek din dil-e-purakhun ka hunar to dekho
subah ke tarah jhamakata hai shab-e-gam ka ufaq
“faiz” tabindagi-e-dida-e-tar to dekho

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam:Faiz Ahmed Faiz

Garmi-e-shauq-e-nazzara ka asar to dekho

gam-e-duniya se gar pai bhi fursat sar uthane ke
falak ka dekhana taqarib tere yaad aane ke
khulega kis tarah mazamun mere maktub ka yarab
qasam khai hai us kafir ne kagaz ke jalne ke
lipatana paraniyan mein shola-e-atish ka aasan hai
wale mushkil hai hikamat dil mein soz-e-gam chupane ke
unhen manzur apne zakhmiyon ka dekh aana tha
uthe the sair-e-gul ko dekhana shokhi bahane ke
hamari sadagi thi iltafat-e-naz par marana
tera aana na tha zalim magar tamahid jane ke
laqad-kob-e-havadis ka tahammul kar nahi sakati
meri taqat ke zamin thi buton ke naz uthane ke
kahun kya khubi-e-auzag-e-ibna-e-zaman “ghalib”
badi ke usane jis se hum ne ke thi barha neki

Poet of the poem/ghazal or Nazam: Mirza Ghalib

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
