Etiraf

jal bujhe aankhon mein KHwabon ke mahakte paikar
ab kahin koi sharara hai na shoala na dhuan

kho gae waqt ki pathrili guzargahon par
chand be-nam tamannaon ke qadmon ke nishan

ek parchhain hun jis mein na koi rang na rup
sirf ehsas ho tum jis ka koi nam nahin

main bhi pa-basta hun haalat ki zanjiron mein
tum pe bhi ahd-e-faramoshi ka ilzam nahin

mere ehsas pe bhi barf jami hai jaise
aanch deta nahin jazbaat ko koi mausam

dhaDkanen aaj tumhaari bhi hain be-lafz-o-bayan
ab barasti nahin dildar nazar se shabnam

main bhi kuchh surat-e-haalat se bargashta hun
tum bhi ho apne KHayalat pe pachhtai hui

main ne bhi jaan liya hai ki haqiqat kya hai
tum bhi KHwabon se nazar aati ho uktai hui

jab na main main hun na tum tum ho to phir aankhon mein
ye giranbar-e-ehsas-e-shanasai kyun

bar ho jaan pe to paiman-e-rifaqat kaisa
bojh hun dil pe to jazbon ki pazirai kyun

mujh ko yun pyar ki ruswaiyan manzur nahin
tum bhi is rishte pe ilzam na aane dena

meri sanson mein na mahkegi tumhaari KHushbu
tum bhi honTon pe mera nam na aane dena
