ek mujhe KHvaab dekhne ke siva chaai peene ki gan dii aadat hai

tum agar saath dene ka vaa'da karo main yoonhi mast nag men lutaata rahoon tum mujhe dekh kar muskuraati raho main tumhein dekh kar geet gaata rahoon

vo koi dost tha achchhe dinon ka jo pichhli raat se yaad aa raha hai

maut ka ek din muayyan hai neend kyun raat bhar nahin aati

muskuraa baithe hain tujhko muskurata dekh kar varna teri muskurahat ki qasam ghusse men hain

tasavvur ne banaya ek saaya phir asli dhoop se usne bachaaya tujhe ik khwaab kii maanind samjha tujhe din bhar jiya shab bhar sajaaya

vo mujhe le gaya gulon ke beech aur kehne laga ki aisa ban

pahle to is hijr ne jam kar baarish kii phir baarish men mor nachaaya yaadon ne

zakhm hai dard hai davaa bhi hai jaise jungle hai raasta bhi hai yuñ to vaade hazaar karta hai aur vo shakhs bhoolta bhi hai ham ko har soo nazar bhi rakhni hai aur tere paas baithna bhi hai yuñ bhi aata nahin mujhe rona aur maatam kii ibtida bhi hai choomne hain pasand ke baadal shaam hote hi lautna bhi hai

mehsoos kar raha hooñ teraa shumaar KHud men so jhaankne laga hooñ main baar-baar KHud men teri chamak se raushan har rahguzar hogaa itnaa to mere jugnoo rakh aitbaar KHud men
