KHamushi achchhi nahin inkar hona chahiye

bas ek bar kisi ne gale lagaya tha

thakna bhi lazmi tha kuchh kaam karte karte

yahan kisi ko bhi kuchh hasb-e-arzu na mila

nahin ki tere ishaare nahin samajhta hun

abhi kisi ke na mere kahe se guzrega

abhi aankhen khuli hain aur kya kya dekhne ko

jaisi ab hai isi haalat mein nahin rah sakta

kab wo zahir hoga aur hairan kar dega mujhe

yun bhi hota hai ki yak dam koi achchha lag jae

aag ka rishta nikal aae koi pani ke sath

baat aisi bhi koi nahin ki mohabbat bahut ziyaada hai

KHushi mili to ye aalam tha bad-hawasi ka

pae hue is waqt ko khona hi bahut hai

dekho to kuchh ziyan nahin khone ke bawajud

yun bhi nahin ki sham-o-sahar intizar tha

ye bhi mumkin hai ki aankhen hon tamasha hi na ho

simaTne ki hawas kya thi bikharna kis liye hai

yaksu bhi lag raha hun bikharne ke bawajud

na usko bhul pae hain na humne yaad rakkha hai

maine kab dawa kiya tha sar-ba-sar baqi hun main

agar is khel mein ab wo bhi shamil hone wala hai

KHush bahut phirte hain wo ghar mein tamasha kar ke

ek hi bar nahin hai wo dobara kam hai

kis nae KHwab mein rahta hun Duboya hua main

ye baat alag hai mera qatil bhi wahi tha

abhi to karna paDega safar dobara mujhe

lahr ki tarah kinare se uchhal jaana hai

bewafai karke niklun ya wafa kar jaunga

kabhi awwal nazar aana kabhi aaKHir hona

chhupa hua jo numudar se nikal aaya

bhul baiTha tha magar yaad bhi KHud maine kiya

khiDkiyan kis tarah ki hain aur dar kaisa hai wo

kuchh nahin samjha hun itna muKHtasar paigham tha

mere andar wo mere siwa kaun tha

chalo itni to aasani rahegi

dariya dur nahin aur pyasa rah sakta hun

yun to kis chiz ki kami hai

nahin ki dil mein hamesha KHushi bahut aai

kuchh sabab hi na bane baat baDha dene ka

bijli giri hai kal kisi ujDe makan par

hamein bhi matlab-o-mani ki justuju hai bahut

larzish-e-parda-e-izhaar ka matlab kya hai

na guman rahne diya hai na yaqin rahne diya

bahut suljhi hui baaton ko bhi uljhae rakhte hain

aisa wo be-shumar-o-qatar intizar tha

sirf aankhen thin abhi un mein ishaare nahin the

ruKH-e-zeba idhar nahin karta

ye nahin kahta ki dobara wahi aawaz de

viran thi raat chand ka patthar siyah tha
