Gai wo baat ke ho guftgu to kyunkar ho

Gai wo baat ke ho guftgu to kyunkar ho
kahe se kuch na hua phir kaho to kyunkar ho?

humaare zahen mein is fikr ka hai naam visaal
ke gar na ho, to kahaan jaayen, ho, to kyun kar ho?

ulajhte ho tum agar dekhte ho aaina
jo tum se shaher mein ho.n, ek  do, to kyunkar ho?

jise naseeb ho roze siyaah mera sa
wo shakhs din na kahe raat ko to kyunkar ho?

Mirza Ghaalib
