chaaah

Kabhi kaantey pasand aaye to kabhi phool bhi bhaaya nahi humey,

Kabhi meelo tanha chaltey rahey to kabhi kismet ne saalo chalaya nahi humey,

wo chaahto ki baarish to karta raha magar,

kabhi ek lamhey ko bhi usne chaaha nahi humey,

kabhi khoobsoorat waadey kiye,

kabhi beintahaan mohobbat,

kabhi soya humari aagosh me,

kabhi dil khol ke roya kambakht,

taptey registaan me dhoondha badi shiddat se tha,

kabhi aag mili to kabhi pyaas mili magar saaya nahi humey,

kabhi ek lamhey ko bhi usne chaaha nahi humey,

badey armaan they ghar sajaane ke dil me,

hasratein to rahi hongi kuch uske bhi dil me,

in hasraton ka mere armaano ka badey itminaan se katl hua dil me,

madhosh to pehli hi nazar me kar diya tha usne,

bus hosh me laaya nahi humey,

ek lamhey ko bhi usne kabhi chaaaha nahi humey,

mai zinda laash hoon tu rooh hai,

tu mera khwaab meri jus-ta-joo hai,

shayad is jism ki kismet me hi nahi ki usey rooh naseeb ho,

tum tab bhi mere the tum aaj bhi mere ho,

bus tumhi ne paya nahi humey,

ek lamhey ko bhi usne kabhi chaha nahi humey…
