Ghazal
तिरी अबरू व-तेग़-ए-तेज़ तो हम-दम हैं ये दोनों
This ghazal describes the beloved's beauty and the emotional pain she inflicts. The poet states that both her beauty and her sharp gaze are companions in his life. He suggests that he does not rely on words (like ink on paper) or tears to express his suffering, as both of these elements are integral to his existence.
