kisi surat dil-e-nadan ko samjhaya nahi jata

kisi surat dil-e-nadan ko samjhaya nahi jata,
ki jaane waalon se kabhi dil lagaya nahi jata,

adda hai zid pe apni bada nadaan bachha hai,
ki toote khilono se jee ko behlaya nahi jata.

yeh jana hai teri duniya mein aake hum fakreeon ne,
ki yahan har kisi ke aage haath failaya nahi jata.

kisi ki pyaas bhujti hai, kisi ki aas bhujti hai,
ki barish ka koi katra kabhi zaaya nahi jata.

jiske waste jeeta hai, ussi pe jal jata hai deewana,
parwane ko hunar jalne ka sikhlaya nahi jata.

kabhi tha aashian mera tere kadmon men janejaana,
ab barson beet jaate hain idhar aaya nahi jata.

aksar gila rehta hai hum maikhaaron se saki ko,
woh bhar deta hai paimana aur humse utthaya nahi jata.

andaaz jeene ka kabhi seekho darkhat se tum,
ho chaahe dhup jinti, isspe kabhi apna saya nahi jata.
