sab kaa KHushii se faasla ek qadam hai
justujuu jis kii thii us ko to na paayaa ham ne
mire suuraj aa! mire jism pe apnaa saaya kar
zindagii jab bhii tirii bazm me.n laatii hai hame.n
ab raat kii diivaar ko Dhaanaa hai zaruurii
chal chal ke thak gayaa hai ki manzil nahii.n ko.ii
siine me.n jalan aa.nkho.n me.n tuufaan saa kyuu.n hai
aks-e-yaad-e-yaar ko dhundlaa kiyaa hai
dard ke phuul bhii khilte hai.n bikhar jaate hai.n
tab ham dono.n vaqt churaa kar laate the
KHvaab kaa dar band hai
kattha.ii aa.nkho.n vaalii ik la.Dkii
ab jidhar dekhiye lagtaa hai ki is duniyaa me.n
ye zindagii bhii ajab kaarobaar hai ki mujhe
jaagtaa huu.n mai.n ek akelaa duniyaa sotii hai
kyuu.n aaj us kaa zikr mujhe KHush na kar sakaa
kis kis tarah se mujh ko na rusvaa kiyaa gayaa
shadiid pyaas thii phir bhii chhu.aa na paanii ko
aa.nkho.n ko sab kii nii.nd bhii dii KHvaab bhii diye
shaam hote hii khulii sa.Dko.n kii yaad aatii hai
be-naam se ik KHauf se dil kyuu.n hai pareshaa.n
ye jab hai ki ik KHvaab se rishta hai hamaaraa
tiraa KHayaal bhii terii tarah sitamgar hai
