milegi aakhiri khaane mein maut hi sab ko — Dinesh Kumar

dekho to kaam ek bhi ham ne kahaan kiyaa
puchho to ek pal ki bhi fursat nahin rahi

dekho darakht kaaTne se pahle ek baar
in sabz Tahniyon pe koi ghonsla na ho

mujh ko saphaltaa baiThe biThaae nahin mili
main ne guhar talaashe hain dariyaa khangaal kar

maraasim barf mein dabne na paaein
qarib aao december aa rahaa hai

kar ke taarif vo miri jhuTi
zahr dhimaa chaTaa gayaa hai mujhe

shaairi naam tasavvur mein chhalakti mai kaa
mar hi jaate jo na piine ki ijaazat hoti

main baDaa ho gayaa huun magar bachpanaa
mere dil se kabhi bhi gayaa hi nahin

shama bujh kar rah gai parvaana jal kar rah gayaa
yaadgaar-e-husn-o-ishq ik daagh dil par rah gayaa

unhein apne dil ki khabrein mire dil se mil rahi hain
main jo un se ruuTh jaaun to payaam tak na pahunche

havaa shaakhon mein rukne aur ulajhne ko hai is lamhe
guzarte baadalon mein chaand haail hone vaalaa hai

main badalte hue haalaat mein Dhal jaataa huun
dekhne vaale adaakaar samajhte hain mujhe

chaand ne taan li hai chaadar-e-abr
ab vo kapDe badal rahi hogi
