Jo yaadon mein ho usko bhulaya nahi jaata
jo bhool jaata hai wo kabhi yaad nahi aata...


badaa ajeeb sa dastoor hai is mohabbat ka
kabhi duri sahi nahi jati, kabhi paas aya nahi jata..


sunane ko to kahaniyan banaayi jaati hein
poocho to haal e dil apna bataaya nahi jaata...


paigaam likh kar doston ko to diye jaate hein
ek khat bhi hum tak magar bhijwaya nahi jaata..


log duhaai dete hein apni tanhaaiyon ki harsu
magar saath kisika bhi unse nibhaya nahi jaata


khayaalon mein janam bhar ki baat sochi jati hai
haqiqat mein kabhi bhi unse bulaya nahi jaata


khelte hein aksar jis dil se wo anjaan bankar
raham khakar us dil ko kabhi bahalaya nahi jaata


aadat hai har baat mein sach chupaane ki aisi
suna hai unse khud se bhi sach bataya nahi jata


hum kyunkar pareshaan karenge apno ko aise
jab humse dushmano ko bhi sataya nahi jaata


jitna chaahe begana bane jitna chaahe door jaye
haal-e-dil unka ab duniya se chupaya nahi jaata


uski nazar se berukhi hume zaahir nahi hoti, k
mahfilon mein nazar ko humse hataya nahi jata...
