kehta hai dil bhool jaa usse

kehta hai dil bhool jaa usse,
woh tere pyaar ke kaabil hi nahi,
phir kyon uski yaad mein
aankh se yeh anshoon behte hain?

mat kar yaad usse
woh teri yaad ke kaabil hi nahi,
phir kyon usse bhool pane
ke jazbaat hi iss dil mein nahi?

koshish to karta hoon
har lammha usse doour jaane ki,
phir kyon yeh kadam nahi uthte
usse chord ke jaane ke liye?

aye khuda suna tha
pyaar mein bichad ke log jee nahi sakte,
phir kyon nahi phat rahi aaj
yeh zameen mujhe samane ke liye?
