tere KHayal ke diwar-o-dar banate hain

tere ḳhayāl ke dīvār-o-dar banāte haiñ

ham apne ghar meñ bhī terā hī ghar banāte haiñ

bajā.e yaum-e-malāmat rakhā hai jashn mirā

mire bhī dost mujhe kis qadar banāte haiñ

bikherte raho sahrā meñ biij ulfat ke

ki biij hī to ubhar kar shajar banāte haiñ

bas ab hikāyat-e-mazdūrī-e-vafā na banā

vo ghar unheñ nahīñ milte jo ghar banāte haiñ

tirā bhī naam chhapā vaj.h-e-marg-e-āshiq meñ

ye dekh be-ḳhabare yuuñ ḳhabar banāte haiñ

vo kyā ḳhudā kī parastish kareñge merī tarah

jo ek but bhī bahut soch kar banāte haiñ

kahā ye kis ne ki hai qasr-e-ishq rahn-e-shabāb

banāne vaale ise umr-bhar banāte haiñ

tū aa.e to tirī kārī-garī kī laaj rahe

ham aaj dasht meñ rah kar bhī ghar banāte haiñ

milī na fursat-e-ārā.ish-e-bayābāñ bhī

ki ham yahāñ bhī tire bām-o-dar banāte haiñ

adū havāo karāchī ke log haare nahīñ

jo ghar girāo vo bār-e-digar banāte haiñ

abu-dhabi meñ hamesha na.ī ġhazal 'ālī'

ye log hī to tujhe mo'tabar banāte haiñ

tere KHayal ke diwar-o-dar banate hain

hum apne ghar mein bhi tera hi ghar banate hain

bajae yaum-e-malamat rakha hai jashn mera

mere bhi dost mujhe kis qadar banate hain

bikherte raho sahra mein bij ulfat ke

ki bij hi to ubhar kar shajar banate hain

bas ab hikayat-e-mazduri-e-wafa na bana

wo ghar unhen nahin milte jo ghar banate hain

tera bhi nam chhapa wajh-e-marg-e-ashiq mein

ye dekh be-KHabare yun KHabar banate hain

wo kya KHuda ki parastish karenge meri tarah

jo ek but bhi bahut soch kar banate hain

kaha ye kis ne ki hai qasr-e-ishq rahn-e-shabab

banane wale ise umr-bhar banate hain

tu aae to teri kari-gari ki laj rahe

hum aaj dasht mein rah kar bhi ghar banate hain

mili na fursat-e-araish-e-bayaban bhi

ki hum yahan bhi tere baam-o-dar banate hain

adu hawao karachi ke log haare nahin

jo ghar girao wo bar-e-digar banate hain

abu-dhabi mein hamesha nai ghazal 'ali'

ye log hi to tujhe mo'tabar banate hain
