The Ghazal
There is this poetic form: The Ghazal
Born in Arabia was the Ghazal
Popular in Farsi, Urdu, Hindi
A wonderful form of poem: Ghazal
Pronounced like Guzzle, and I could do that
Guzzle many everyday, the Ghazal
There are rules for end words, a fixed pattern
It is so easy to write a Ghazal
Pramod salutes the founders of this form
A jolly form of poetry: The Ghazal
Born in Arabia was the Ghazal
Popular in Farsi, Urdu, Hindi
A wonderful form of poem: Ghazal
Pronounced like Guzzle, and I could do that
Guzzle many everyday, the Ghazal
There are rules for end words, a fixed pattern
It is so easy to write a Ghazal
Pramod salutes the founders of this form
A jolly form of poetry: The Ghazal
