जब तुम दूर चले जाओगे
तुम फिर दूर चले जाओगे
कैसे कहें कितना हमे तड़पाओगे
बातों बातों में तेरी बात आएगी
दिल की बात तुमसे न कह पायेंगे
हवा भी छु कर तुझे मेरे पास न आयेगी
हर सुबह तेरी याद हमे तडपायेगी
रात चमकेंगे सितारे और इच्छाएं भी मचलेंगी
बारिश की बूँदें भी तपिश न बुझा पाएंगी
ये हर ओर किसी अपने को ढूंढेगी
बन कर आंसू आँखों में यादें मचलेंगी
दिल को रौंद कर जो भीड में खो जाओगे
जाने कैसे फिर तुम भी सो पाओगे ...

Hum Pyar Samajh Lete hain
Itefaaq Se Nazar Nazar Se Mili
Aur Hum Pyaar Samajh Letey Hai
Kisi Ke Dil Main Chupe Ehesaason Ko
Hum Apne Jazbaat Samajh Letey Hai
Woh Nazar Chura Kar Chale Gaye Humse
Hum Phir Milege Ye Baat Samajh Letey Hai
Woh Hue Na Hamare To Koi Baat Nahi
Unke Saaye Ko Apna Pyaar Samajh Letey Hai
Kabhi Koi Milga Humsayaa Zindagi Mai
Isii Dhokhe Mai Ye Baat Samajh Letey Hai
Itefaaq Se Nazar Nazar Se Mili
Aur Hum Pyaar Samajh Late Hai
Itefaaq Se Nazar Nazar Se Mili
Aur Hum Pyaar Samajh Letey Hai
Kisi Ke Dil Main Chupe Ehesaason Ko
Hum Apne Jazbaat Samajh Letey Hai
Woh Nazar Chura Kar Chale Gaye Humse
Hum Phir Milege Ye Baat Samajh Letey Hai
Woh Hue Na Hamare To Koi Baat Nahi
Unke Saaye Ko Apna Pyaar Samajh Letey Hai
Kabhi Koi Milga Humsayaa Zindagi Mai
Isii Dhokhe Mai Ye Baat Samajh Letey Hai
Itefaaq Se Nazar Nazar Se Mili
Aur Hum Pyaar Samajh Late Hai
Mulaqat ho gayi
kal ek shakhs se mulaqaat ho gai
Kal ek Shakhs se Mulaqaat Ho gai
pal pal joda or din bhar baat ho gai
subah ka dilkash manzar cheda
kab na jaane haseen raat ho gai
Khuda bhi the shayad meherbaan humpe
chaha tha bheegna or barsaat ho gai
baaton baaton me jab muskuraye woh
yu laga hawaa bhi apne saath ho gai
tab se ud rahi hoon hawao mai "Lamha"
jaise mujh nacheez ki koi auqaat ho gai
Kal ek Shakhs se Mulaqaat Ho gai
pal pal joda or din bhar baat ho gai
subah ka dilkash manzar cheda
kab na jaane haseen raat ho gai
Khuda bhi the shayad meherbaan humpe

Coupleticism-Meaning and Defination
Shayri
Urdu Poetry or Shaayaree, essentially comprises couplet, or Sher. The plural for Sher is Ashaar. The form ghazal is a collection of mulitiple ashaar - each of which should convey a complete thought without any reference to other shayari of the same ghazal. In fact, though belonging to the same ghazal, the different ashaar therein can have completely different meaning and tone relative to one another.
Sher
(Couplet). It consists of two lines (misra); first line is called 'misra-e-oola' and the second is called 'MISRA-E-SANI'. Each verse embodies a single thought or subject (sing): Sher, Shero, Shayari, Shyari, Shayri.
Bait-ul-Ghazal
The best Sher in a Ghazal.
Example- a Shēr (couplet by poet Majrooh Sultanpuri as given below.
"mai. akelā hī chalā thā zānīb-ē-manzīl magar lōg sāth ātē gayē aur kāravā banatā gayā"
(I started all alone towards the goal but people kept joining and it began to turn into a karavan)
Urdu Ghazal
The Ghazal is an ode. The literal meaning of the word "ghazal" is "to converse with the beloved".
Etymologically, it comes from the Arabic word Ghizaal, meaning gazelle. It is a poem containing a minimum of 5 verses and maximum 25. The opening verse of the ghazal is called matla and both hemistiches rhyme with one another. The last verse of the ghazal is a maqta, which usually contains the penname of the poet. Most of Persian and Urdu writers have earned fame as ghazal writers. Ghazal is the soul of Urdu literature and most popular form of Urdu poetry.
The following is an example of sher, composed by Mirza Ghalib:
nahii.n ki mujhko qayaamat kaa etiqaad nahii.n
shab-e-firaaq se roz-e-jazaa ziyaad nahii.n
It is not that I do not have faith in (the pains of) the day of judgement, But the night of separation is not less than the day of judgement.
What the poet is trying to say is that he trusts that the day of judgement would be very painful, as it has been described in Qur'an and Hadith; however, this night of separation from his beloved is not less painful than the day of judgement.
A better example of ghazal is shown below from two couplets of Baqa Akbarabadi*, a contemporary of Meer Taqi Meer, from a ghazal written in the classical conversational form, that is, a dialogue between the lover and the beloved. This traditional form, as seen in Hafiz Shirazi's works in old Persian poetry, does seldom appear in contemporary Urdu works.Today we have only few good ghazal writers it includes dr asif husain Tahir faraz,Iqbal ashar,Naseem nikhat ETC.
Kaha main ne! Sila meri wafa ka tujhsey kya nikla?
Kaha us ne! Nateeja dil lagane ka, bura nikla?
Kaha main ne! Wajah koi teri is be-wafaai ki?
Kaha us ne! Fida mujhpar koi, tujhsey siwa nikla!
Said I! What return did my love get back from you?
Said she! Did indeed your heart have a bad experience?
Said I! What caused this unfaithfulness of yours?
Said she! Someone more enchanted than you has shown up!
