Mohabbat Ghazal Hai Ibaadat Ghazal Hai

mohabbat ghazal hai ibaadat ghazal hai

ghazal marifat hai shariat ghazal hai

ghina ziraki aur latafat ghazal hai

qasam le lo kasrat mein wahdat ghazal hai

taKHayyul tasawwur tashaboh tawazun

is arba ki yakjai surat ghazal

har ek band har masnawi tul qamat

ghazal arz o jauhar hai qimat ghazal hai

KHudi ko liye be-KHudi ko sambhaale

itaat ghazal hai baghawat ghazal hai

ghazal gardish o mehwar o daera hai

ghazal fard-e-wahid hai millat ghazal hai

baham tanz o tausif o shukr o shikayat

fasahat ghazal hai balaghat ghazal hai

harifon se ye qaul-e-'diwana' kah do

ghazal hai jo hasrat to hasrat ghazal hai
