Ghar ka darwaaza khulaa rakha hai,
Waqt mil jaye to zehmat karnaa..

aks-e-KHushbu hun bikharne se na roke koi
aur bikhar jaun to mujh ko na sameTe koi

kanp uThti hun main ye soch ke tanhai mein
mere chehre pe tera nam na paDh le koi

jis tarah KHwab mere ho gae reza reza
us tarah se na kabhi TuT ke bikhre koi

main to us din se hirasan hun ki jab hukm mile
KHushk phulon ko kitabon mein na rakkhe koi

ab to is rah se wo shaKHs guzarta bhi nahin
ab kis ummid pe darwaze se jhanke koi

koi aahaT koi aawaz koi chap nahin
dil ki galiyan baDi sunsan hain aae koi

Main sach kahun gi magar phir bhi haar jaun gi,
Woh jhoot bole ga aur la’jawab kar de ga..

apni hi sada sunun kahan tak
jangal ki hawa rahun kahan tak

har bar hawa na hogi dar par
har bar magar uThun kahan tak

dam ghaTta hai ghar mein habs wo hai
KHushbu ke liye rukun kahan tak

phir aa ke hawaen khol dengi
zaKHm apne rafu karun kahan tak

sahil pe samundaron se bach kar
main nam tera likhun kahan tak

tanhai ka ek ek lamha
hangamon se qarz lun kahan tak

gar lams nahin to lafz hi bhej
main tujh se juda rahun kahan tak

sukh se bhi to dosti kabhi ho
dukh se hi gale milun kahan tak

mansub ho har kiran kisi se
apne hi liye jalun kahan tak

aanchal mere bhar ke phaT rahe hain
phul us ke liye chunun kahan tak

Woh to khushbuu hai hawaaon mein bikhar jaye ga,
Masla phool ka hai, phool kidar jaaye ga..

apni ruswai tere nam ka charcha dekhun
ek zara sher kahun aur main kya kya dekhun

nind aa jae to kya mahfilen barpa dekhun
aankh khul jae to tanhai ka sahra dekhun

sham bhi ho gai dhundla gain aankhen bhi meri
bhulne wale main kab tak tera rasta dekhun

ek ek kar ke mujhe chhoD gain sab sakhiyan
aaj main KHud ko teri yaad mein tanha dekhun

kash sandal se meri mang ujale aa kar
itne ghairon mein wahi hath jo apna dekhun

tu mera kuchh nahin lagta hai magar jaan-e-hayat
jaane kyun tere liye dil ko dhDakna dekhun

band kar ke meri aankhen wo shararat se hanse
bujhe jaane ka main har roz tamasha dekhun

sab ziden us ki main puri karun har baat sunun
ek bachche ki tarah se use hansta dekhun

mujh pe chha jae wo barsat ki KHushbu ki tarah
ang ang apna isi rut mein mahakta dekhun

phul ki tarah mere jism ka har lab khul jae
pankhuDi pankhuDi un honTon ka saya dekhun

main ne jis lamhe ko puja hai use bas ek bar
KHwab ban kar teri aankhon mein utarta dekhun

tu meri tarah se yakta hai magar mere habib
ji mein aata hai koi aur bhi tujh sa dekhun

TuT jaen ki pighal jaen mere kachche ghaDe
tujh ko main dekhun ki ye aag ka dariya dekhun

Mere lafzon se nikal jaye assar,
Koi khawhish jo tere baad karoon.

apni tanhai mere nam pe aabaad kare
kaun hoga jo mujhe us ki tarah yaad kare

dil ajab shahr ki jis par bhi khula dar is ka
wo musafir ise har samt se barbaad kare

apne qatil ki zehanat se pareshan hun main
roz ek maut nae tarz ki ijad kare

itna hairan ho meri be-talabi ke aage
wa qafas mein koi dar KHud mera sayyaad kare

salb-e-binai ke ahkaam mile hain jo kabhi
raushni chhune ki KHwahish koi shab-zad kare

soch rakhna bhi jaraem mein hai shamil ab to
wahi masum hai har baat pe jo sad kare

jab lahu bol paDe us ke gawahon ke KHilaf
qazi-e-shahr kuchh is bab mein irshad kare

us ki muTThi mein bahut roz raha mera wajud
mere sahir se kaho ab mujhe aazad kare

Iss baar jo eendhan ke liye katt ke gira hai,
Chirriyon ko barra pyaar tha uss boorrhe shajar se..

ashk aankh mein phir aTak raha hai
kankar sa koi khaTak raha hai

main us ke KHayal se gurezan
wo meri sada jhaTak raha hai

tahrir usi ki hai magar dil
KHat paDhte hue aTak raha hai

hain phone pe kis ke sath baaten
aur zehn kahan bhaTak raha hai

sadiyon se safar mein hai samundar
sahil pe thakan Tapak raha hai

ek chand salib-e-shaKH-e-gul par
baali ki tarah laTak raha hai

Woh aik rishta benaam bhi nahin lekin,
Main ab bhi us ke isharon pe sar jhukaon gi..

bab-e-hairat se mujhe izn-e-safar hone ko hai
tahniyat ai dil ki ab diwar dar hone ko hai
khol den zanjir-e-dar aur hauz ko KHali karen
zindagi ke bagh mein ab sah-pahar hone ko hai
maut ki aahaT sunai de rahi hai dil mein kyun
kya mohabbat se bahut KHali ye ghar hone ko hai
gard-e-rah ban kar koi hasil safar ka ho gaya
KHak mein mil kar koi lal-o-guhar hone ko hai
ek chamak si to nazar aai hai apni KHak mein
mujh pe bhi shayad tawajjoh ki nazar hone ko hai
gum-shuda basti musafir lauT kar aate nahin
moajaza aisa magar bar-e-digar hone ko hai
raunaq-e-bazar-o-mahfil kam nahin hai aaj bhi
saneha is shahr mein koi magar hone ko hai
ghar ka sara rasta is sarKHushi mein kaT gaya
is se agle moD koi ham-safar hone ko hai

Kon chahey ga tumhe meri tarah,
Ab kisi se na mohabbat karna..

baadban khulne se pahle ka ishaara dekhna
main samundar dekhti hun tum kinara dekhna

yun bichhaDna bhi bahut aasan na tha us se magar
jate jate us ka wo muD kar dobara dekhna

kis shabahat ko liye aaya hai darwaze pe chand
ai shab-e-hijran zara apna sitara dekhna

kya qayamat hai ki jin ke nam par paspa hue
un hi logon ko muqabil mein saf-ara dekhna

jab banam-e-dil gawahi sar ki mangi jaegi
KHun mein Duba hua parcham hamara dekhna

jitne mein bhi jahan ji ka ziyan pahle se hai
aisi bazi haarne mein kya KHasara dekhna

aaine ki aankh hi kuchh kam na thi mere liye
jaane ab kya kya dikhaega tumhaara dekhna

ek musht-e-KHak aur wo bhi hawa ki zad mein hai
zindagi ki bebasi ka istiara dekhna

Tera pehlu, tere dil ki tarah abaad rahe,
Tujh pe guzrey na qayamat shab-e-tanhai ki..

barish hui to phulon ke tan chaak ho gae
mausam ke hath bhig ke saffak ho gae

baadal ko kya KHabar hai ki barish ki chah mein
kaise buland-o-baala shajar KHak ho gae

jugnu ko din ke waqt parakhne ki zid karen
bachche hamare ahd ke chaalak ho gae

lahra rahi hai barf ki chadar haTa ke ghas
suraj ki shah pe tinke bhi bebak ho gae

basti mein jitne aab-gazida the sab ke sab
dariya ke ruKH badalte hi tairak ho gae

suraj-dimagh log bhi ablagh-e-fikr mein
zulf-e-shab-e-firaq ke pechaak ho gae

jab bhi gharib-e-shahr se kuchh guftugu hui
lahje hawa-e-sham ke namnak ho gae

Bas tere rawai’yon ka sabab dhoondte rehna,
Yeh silsila ab aur to chalne ka nahin..

bahut roya wo hum ko yaad kar ke
hamari zindagi barbaad kar ke

palaT kar phir yahin aa jaenge hum
wo dekhe to hamein aazad kar ke

rihai ki koi surat nahin hai
magar han minnat-e-sayyaad kar ke

badan mera chhua tha us ne lekin
gaya hai ruh ko aabaad kar ke

har aamir tul dena chahta hai
muqarrar zulm ki miad kar ke

Humain khabar hai, Hawaa ka mizaaj rakhte ho,
Magar yeh kya, ke zara dair ko rukey bhi nahin..
