khwaab huye dhundle aur unhein khoya

yun hi zindagi ko sanjoya,
khwaab huye dhundle aur unhein khoya.

kalam ko shihayi mein duboya,
phir ek ek moti saath piroya,

halke se – kahi chub naa jaaye,
yeh kaanch ke tukro sa dil,
sab tukdo ko saath rakha to
dekho khud ko kabhi tannha naa paaya.

mein aur kuch soch.. gehri sagar si,
iski lehron par kaabu kaise paaun,
jo de iss dil ko sukoon,
woh saugaat aye dard kaha se laun?

ek ek moti se gharda bharta hai,
par daaman jo yeh bhara hi nahi,

jo mila.. usse chaha nahi,
jo chaha.. woh kabhi mila hi nahi,

yun hi zindagi ko sanjoya,
ek ek moti sang piroya.
