kaise keh doon sirf saans se zinda hoon

alvida keh kar jab koi aankhon se door hota hai,
aankhein dekhti rehti hain lekin dil rota hai,

koi kahe na kahe juban se magar
dil mein dard jarur hota hain.

saanse lene se teri yaad aati hai,
na lene se meri jaan jaati hai,

kaise keh doon sirf saans se zinda hoon,
kambakht saanse bi toh teri yaad ke baad aati hain,

kisi ke dil mein basna bura to nahi,
kisi ko dil mein basana khata to nahi,

gunhaa hai yeh zamane ki nazar mein to kya hua,
zamane wale bhi insaan hai koi khuda toh nahi,

pyar ka zajbaa bhi kya khub dikha deta hai,
ek ajnabi chehre ko mehboob bana deta hai,

maine to usse zindagi bhar ka saath manga tha,
ussne to mere dil se khel kar wapas kar diya.
