Yaaden teri...

Dil ke har ek konay me...
hassne me, ronay me..chhupi hain yaaden teri
Mehfooz lihaaf-e-maazi me,
Saanso me liptee hui...rakkhi hain yaaden teri

Ehsaas-e-tanhaai ke... tasavvur par hassta hu mein
Thaam kar kalaai meri...khadi hain yaaden teri

Kuchh hai jo mein... abb tak nahi samajh sakaa
Kuchh hai jo reh reh kar...kehti hain yaaden teri

Khana badosh shabnam ki... talaash mein sehraa me hu
Veerane me bayaar si... lagti hain yaaden teri

Saavan me bankar phool... khil jaati hain shaakhon par
Patjhadd me bankar kaante...chubhti hain yaaden teri

Kabhi lagta hai chhod du me ghar... ashqon se nijaat ko
Magar inn darr-o-deewar par... tangee hain yaaden teri!

Alvida

Kab ye tufaa.n thame, aur sahil par utar jaau
uske baghair jeene ke tassavur hi se darr jaau

wo kuchh kehta bhi nahi, sunnta bhi nahi meri
aakhir kis laraz ki ummeed se mein ghar jaau

kabhi samjhaau dil ko, wo abb nahi lautega
fir kisi aahat ke ehsaas se thhahar jaau

peer-o-mazaar, darr hazaar, jaakar manga thha usse
abb usse bhulaane ki khaatir mein kidhar jaau

zindagi intezaar me guzar gayi bila-haasil,
wo "alvida" hi keh de, mein chain se marr jaau!
