DaraKHt mere dost

daraKHt! mere dost
tum mil jate ho kisi na kisi moD par

aur aasan kar dete ho safar
tumhaare pair ki ungliyan

jami rahin patal ke bhedon par
qaem rahe mere dost

tumhaare tane ki matanat aur quwwat
dhup aur barish tumhein apne tohfon se nawazti rahe

tum bahut pur-waqar aur sada ho
mere thaile ko jaanna chahte ho

zarur ye lo main ise kholta hun
roTiyan duaen aur nazmen

mere pas is se ziyaada kuchh nahin
ek shaer ke pas is se ziyaada kuchh nahin hota

dost dukh dena tum ne sikha hi nahin
tum ne na to mujh se shaeri ka matlab puchha

aur na kabhi mere mutalee par shak kiya
aisa hi hona chahiye doston ko

agar mere pas ek aur zindagi hoti to
to main apni pahli zindagi tumhaari jaDon par guzar deta

magar main ghar se KHandan bhar KHushiyon ke liye nikla hun
aur wahan mera intizar kiya ja raha hai

tum ne mere dost
han tum ne

bahut kuchh sikhaya hai mujhe
maslan zamin aur aasmani bijli

aur hawa
aur intizar

aur dusron ke liye zinda rahna
bahut qimti hain ye baaten

main kya de sakta hun is fayyazi ka jawab
mere pas tumhaare liye

ek roTi aur dua hai
roTi: tumhaari chiyunTiyon ke liye

dua tumhaare aaKHiri din ke liye
mujhe malum hai tum ne kulhaDi ke musafahe

aur aari ki hansi se kabhi KHauf nahin khaya
magar tum rok nahin sakte inhen

koi bhi nahin rok sakta
KHuda kare

KHuda kare tumhaari shaKHon se ek jhonpaDi banai jae
bazuon ke ghere mein na aane wale tumhaare

tane ki lakDi
bahut kafi hai

do pahiyon aur ek kashti ke liye
dost: hum phir milenge

musafir aur chhakDa
musafir aur kashti

kahin na kahin hum phir ek sath honge
kahin na kahin

ek sath hum samna karenge
hawa ka aur raston ka

masarrat aur maut ka
