kya likhu

Dil ki ek unchaai pe, tanhai me
Sochta hu ab kya likhu,
Waqt ki gawaahi ki gehraai se,
Sochta hu ab kya likhu

Likhu bhi toh kis baat pe likhu
Us baat pe jo ho na saki,
Wo din, jo kho na sake,
Ya wo raat jo ro na saki

Sham dhal gayi, shama jali hain
Ek bujhe se hain hum, ek khalbali hai,
Bujh gayi dil ki hai aag, bujh to gayi ,
Dil ke kuchh logo ke chehre jala gayi,

Chehra ek saraapa ek, nazar ek, ek ishaara,
Ishaare ishaare ki baat hai, hai kisko gawaara,
Khwamakhwaah me kalam jo uthaayi hai, rakh hi du,
Kuchh ankahe jo lafz hain, ab likh hi du,

Qaatil un nigaaho ke naizo ki nok pe,
Sochta hu ab kya likhu,
Ye jo likh ban para hai, itne hi rok pe,
Sochta hu ab aur kya likhu…
