MEHEKTI BAATEIN

us k baaton ki mehek kuch yun khushnuma aise
k woh ho baad-e-saba jannat k gulistaan jaise

woh hain humdard zara aur thode humkhayal bhi
thode se meherbaan bhi aur zara rehnuma jaise

un k ru ba ru dil ko mein hai ye sukoon kaisa
un ka saath ka aalam zameen-o-aasmaan jaise

har gham-o-dard zehen se door nikal jaata hai
woh khushiyon se kar dete hain badghuma aise

KHAMOSH NAZAR

woh khamosh nazar kuch anjaan alfaaz keh jaati hai
aur kuch baatein dhadkanon mein dabi reh jaati hai

raat bhar us k khwaabon ka ek silsila sa rehta hai
uski yaadon mein phir muskuraati hui subah aati hai

us k pehlu mein hi dil ko sukoon ka ehsaas hota hai
us k aagosh mein meri har takleef bhi beh jaati hai

uski aarzoo uski justuju meri zindagi ki ummeed hai
us k rehguzar se hi mere khushiyon ki wajah aati hai

us k soch bhar se hi rooh tak ko sukoon mil jaata hai
woh mere khayaalon mein khushboo ki tarah chaati hai

BADGHUMAAN

is duniya k paar maine ek aur jahaan dekha hai
kuch is tarah wahan ghamon ka inteha dekha hai

badalon k darmiyaan ummeed ki roshni chup si gayi
jahaan lahoo mein sisakta hua aasmaan dekha hai

khushiyon ki chaadar jaise k ek kafan si ban gayi
khud apni chita se uthta hua dhuaan dekha hai

ye hua hai k har khwaahishein dafn si ho gayi
khud ko apni hi hasraton se badghumaan dekha hai

MERI ISHQ KI

ye meri ishq ki kuch aisi kahaani si hai
mohabbat nafs mein ban k ik rawaani si hai

ye bekhudi hai ya phir ankhon ka khwaab sa
kuch ajeeb si ab ye meri zindagaani si hai

in kadmon ka silsila bhi ab falak tak hai
dil per chaayi ghata bhi kuch aasmaani si hai

shairaana si hone lagi hai ab har soch bhi
lafzon ki ada bhi kuch kuch romaani si hai

kabhi ek pal ek sadi kabhi ek sadi ek pal hai
waqt ki rehguzar bhi thodi si deewani si hai

ek ehsaas jehannam si toh kabhi jannat si hai
kabhi pareshaani hai kabhi meherbaani si hai

kuch maloom nahi aur kuch samajh aata nahi
phir bhi dhadkanon ki har mausam suhaani si hai
