Urdu Ghazal in Roman script written by Ashok Sawhny ” Sahil”

Maut se khaaif kyon woh to jagaaye rakhti hai

‘Sahil’, hayaat hi bediyaan pehnaaye rakhti hai

Nasheb o faraaz to har zindagi ka hissa hai

Qismat bhi khub hisaab banaaye rakhti hai

Pareshan rehti ho jo tulu e aftaab se neend

Woh bad naseeb shab bhar jagaaye rakhti hai

Intekhaab mat kijiye yeh usool nahin hai

Mehmaan navaazi chaadar bichhaaye rakhti hai

Haal men jeena to muhaal nahin hai ‘sahi’

Kambakht yaad e maazi hi sataaye rakhti hai

Khaaif. Afraid

Hayaat. Life

Nasheb o faraaz. Slopes. Ups n downs

Tulu e aaftaab. Sunrise

Intekhaab. Selection

Mehmaan navaazi. Welcoming guests

Muhaal mushkil

Yaad e maazi. Thoughts of the past
