Biography
Ghazals by Hafeez Jalandhari
Agar Mauj Hai Beech Dhaare Chala Chal
Ab To Kuch Aur Bhi Andhera Hai
Ai Dost Mit Gaya Hoon Fana Ho Gaya Hoon
Dil Abhi Tak Jawaan Hai Pyare
Bargashta-E-Yazdaan Se Kuch Bhool Hui Hai
Khoon Ban Kar Munasib Nahin Dil Bahe
Koi Chaara Nahin Dua Ke Siwa
Koi Dawa Na De Sake, Mashwara Dua Diya
Tu Bhi Kisi Ka Pyar Na Paaye Khuda Kare
Ye Kya Muqaam Hai Wo Nazaare Kahaan Gaye
Abhi To Main Javaan Hoon
Ham Hi Men Thi Na Koi Baat, Yaad Na Tum Ko
Shaair Hoon Meraa Kaam Nahin Falsafa-Raani
Uthi Hai Maghrib Se Ghataa
Kyon Hijr Ke Shikave Kartaa Hai Kyon Dard
