iss dil se haar jate hain

har baar hosla karte hain,
phir khud hi tutt jate hain,

iss dil ko khud hi samjha kar ,
iss dil se haar jate hain,

phir se ret ko muthi me pakard kar,
phisalta pate hain,

ankhoon me samandar ko samette samette ,
chalakta pate hain,

har baar kuch chaah kar ,
woh khud hi kar jaate hain,

intezar karvate karvate ,
khud hi intezar karta pate hain,

naa jane kyun is dil ko ,
samjha hi nahi pate hain,

apne aap khud ko mana hi nahin pate hain,
woh kya samjhenge jasbaat jinhein ‘ehsaas’ hi nahi,
naa jane kyun har baar kuch aise hi dost bana jate hain..
