Sad Poetry of Arshad Ali Khan Qalaq

Yaad Dilwaiye Un Ko Jo Kabhi Wada-e-wasl

Rukh Tah-e-zulf Hai Aur Zulf Pareshan Sar Par

Kufr-o-islam Ke Jhagdon Se Chhudaya Sad-shukr

Kotah Umr Ho Gai Aur Ye Na Kam Hui

Khat Mein Likkhi Hai Haqiqat Dasht-gardi Ki Agar

Khafa Ho Galiyan Do Chahe Aane Do Na Aane Do

Gul-gun Teri Gali Rahe Aashiq Ke Khun Se

Ghat Par Talwar Ke Nahlaiyo Mayyat Meri

Chala Hai Chhod Ke Tanha Kidhar Tasawwur-e-yar

But-parasti Mein Bhi Bhuli Na Mujhe Yaad-e-khuda

Baad Mere Jo Kiya Shad Kisi Ko To Kaha

Ye Ji Mein Aata Hai Jal Jal Ke Har Zaman Naseh

Ye Barik Unki Kamar Ho Gai

Yar Ke Nargis-e-bimar Ka Bimar Raha

Yagana Un Ka Begana Hai Begana Yagana Hai

Wada-khilaf Kitne Hain Ai Rashk-e-mah Aap

Tha Qasd-e-qatl-e-ghair Magar Main Talab Hua

Tasir Jazb Maston Ki Har Har Ghazal Mein Hai

Sote Hain Phail Phail Ke Sare Palang Par

Sitam Wo Tumne Kiye Bhule Hum Gila Dil Ka

Sharaf Insan Ko Kab Zill-e-huma Deta Hai

Roz-e-awwal Se Asir Ai Dil-e-nashad Hain Hum

Rag-o-pai Mein Bhara Hai Mere Shor Uski Mohabbat Ka

Pinhan Tha Khush-nigahon Ki Didar Ka Maraz

Partaw-e-rukh Ka Tere Dil Mein Guzar Rahta Hai

Partaw Pada Jo Aariz-e-gulgun-e-yar Ka

Nahin Chamke Ye Hansne Mein Tumhaare Dant Anjum Se

Na Wo Khushbu Hai Gulon Mein Na Khalish Khaaron Mein

Milta Hai Qaid-e-gham Mein Bhi Lutf-e-faza-e-bagh

Lute Maze Jo Humne Tumhaare Ugal Ke
