main ne aksar inhin aankhon ke dariche se tujhe
jhankte dekha hai
jab laghzish-e-anfas baDhi
tund-o-pur-shor sadaon ka hujum
nur-afroz KHalaon se ham-aghosh hua
main ne aksar inhin aankhon ke dariche mein tujhe
Dubte dekha hai
jab talKHi-e-ehsas ghaTi
KHamushi raKHt-e-safar bandh chuki
tund-o-pur-shor sadaon ka hujum
zulmat-angez zamin-doz guphaon ka jigar
chir ke
unghti tanhai mein tahlil hua
main ne tu ne inhin aankhon ke dariche ke qarib
raushni rote hue nur ke minaron ko
ashk bante hue girte hue dekha hai
to kyun
aandhiyan chalne lagin
KHauf se kanp uThin baz darichon ki lawen?
