Dawa
agar
kaam
na
aaye,
to
nazar
bhi
utaarti
hai
Ye
Maa
hai
sahab,
haar
kaha
maanti
hai.
Aankhen
meech,
chaadar
ko
kheench,
khud
ko
dhak
leta
hoon.
Kal
agar
nahin
utha
toh
yeh
chaadar
khoob
kaam
aayegi.
Zindagi
yun
hui
basar
Tanha,
Kafila
sath
aur
safar
tanha...
Apne
saaye
se
chaunk
jaate
hain,
Umra
guzri
hai
iss
kadar
tanha.
Kabhi
toh
chauk
ke
dekhe
koi
hamari
taraf,
Kisi
ki
aankh
mein
humko
bhi
intezaar
dikhe.
Hum
ne
aksar
tumhari
raahon
mein,
Ruk
kar
apna
hi
intzaar
kiya.
Ek
hi
khwab
ne
saari
raat
jagaya
hai,
Maine
har
karvat
sone
ki
koshish
ki.
Aisa
toh
kabhi
hua
nahi,
Gale
bhi
lage
aur
chhua
nahi.
Aapse
itni
si
guzarish
hai,
aaeye
bheeg
lein
ki
baarish
hai,
Humne
kab
aapse
kaha
miliye,
sirf
mausam
ki
ye
sifarish
hai.
Tham
kar
reh
jati
hai
jindagi..,
Jab
jam
kar
barasti
hain
purani
yaadein.
Apne
andar
ke
bache
ko
hamesha
zinda
rakiye
sahab,
Hadd
se
jyada
samajhdari
jeevan
ko
berang
kar
deti
hai.
Achi
kitabe
aur
ache
log,
turant
samajh
nahi
aate,
Unhe
padhna
padta
hai.
