RE: a ghazal rendering
Ok
The ghazal (Arabic/Persian/Urdu: غزل) is a poetic form with rhyming couplets and a refrain, each line sharing the same meter. A ghazal may be understood as a poetic expression of both the pain of loss or separation and the beauty of love in spite of that pain.
Ghazal - Wikipedia

remember, there is "ghazal," which is a type of poetry, then there is also "ghazal," which is a type of genre in indian music.
so, ghazal music uses ghazal poetry.
Got it!

Ghazals—songs of intoxication and yearning, which use the language of romantic love to express the soul's longing for union with the divine.
yup. exactly! that is the definition. you summarized how the poetry and the music are supposed to work to reach the desired intention.
