ab chaah nahi hai koi....

nindiya se lamhe churakar, farda hum jagte rahe ,
chitthiyaan chahat ko banakar, tanha hum likhte rahe..

thak gayi thi aankhein itna ki, inko to ab sona tha , par soti kaise..
haathon ko kaagajrupi is dhage main ,moti jo pirona tha..

chah samaye kuch mann me, chanda chilman se jhaank raha tha,
baanh pasare andhiyaare me, sannaata bhi jaag raha tha..

hawaayon ne mastani hokar, jab-jab darwaaza hilaaya,
sehma dil aur tham gayi saansein, lagta tab jaise koi aaya..

aashna ko soch-soch kar, raat guzar gayi khayaalaat ki,
aankhon me ummeedein lekar, aaj sehar aayi mulaakat ki..

lafzon ne jab khat me dhalkar, chaahat ka paigaam diya,
nazron ne uski tab jhukkar, raaz-e-dil ko bayaan kiya..

hokar baatein kuch pyaari, afsaano si pal rahi thi,
paakar chaahat ho nyaari, tanhaai bhi dhal rahi thi..

pyaar k deepon se usne, munavvar kiya hai jo is dil ko,
ab darkaar nahi hai koi, sukoon mila hai har pal ko..
