GHAZAL

Jab sukoo'n tha to kahaan harf e dua yaad aaya
Aaj hai waqte musibat to khuda yaad aya

Kis tarah humne hazaron pe jafaen ki hain
thookrien khaayin to andaz e jafa yaad aaya

Aaj jab chandini utri thi mere aangan mein
Chand kis lamha hua mujhse khafa yaad aaya

Teri mazboot panahon se judaai k baad
Raat kyun dene lagi mujhko saza yad aaya

jab bhi fursat mili hangama e duniya se mujhe
meri tanhai ko bas tera pata yaad aaya

Ye "Aleena" hai bahot door vatan se apne
Laut te dekhe parinde to sada yaad aaya...
