Dil

dil wo sahra tha
ki jis sahra mein

hasraten
ret ke Tilon ki tarah rahti thin

jab hawadis ki hawa
un ko miTane ke liye

chalti thi
yahan miTti thin

kahin aur ubhar aati thin
shakl khote hi

nai shakl mein Dhal jati thin
dil ke sahra pe magar ab ki bar

saneha guzra kuchh aisa
ki sunae na bane

aandhi wo aai ki sare Tile
aise bikhre

ki kahin aur ubhar hi na sake
yun miTe hain

ki kahin aur banae na bane
ab kahin

Tile nahin
ret nahin

ret ka zarra nahin
dil mein ab kuchh nahin

dil ko sahra bhi agar kahiye
to kaise kahiye
