Habib Jalib — Meeras

Poets·Habib Jalib·Ghazal

matla

bade bane the jaalib saahab pite sadak ke beech

goli khaai laathi khaai gire sadak ke beech

kabhi gireban chaak hua aur kabhi hua khoon

hamein toh yoonhi mile ke sile sadak ke beech

jism pe jo zakhmon ke nishan hain apne tamghe hain

mili hai aisi daad wafa ki kise sadak ke beech
