Here is a beautiful Punjabi Ghazal of Mr. Ghaffar Razi for our visitors:

غزل

گزری گل نُوں یاد کراں تے کیوں کراں

زندگی نوں برباد کراں تے کیوں کراں

کھوہ کے خُشیاں کِسے دی جھولی وچوں میں

اپنے دل نوں شاد کراں تے کیوں کراں

اوہدی یاد دا پنچھی سینے تاڑ کے میں

سوچ رہیاں آزاد کراں تے کیوں کراں

جس دے ویڑھے سجنا توں نہیں رہ سکدا

انج دا گھر آباد کراں تے کیوں کراں

رسماں نال بغاوت آپے کیتی اے

رو رو ہن فریاد کراں تے کیوں کراں

پچھلیاں پیڑاں رازی حالے بھُلیاں نہیں

درد نویں ایجاد کراں تے کیوں کراں
