jiye garche isi duniyaa mein ham bhi — Inam Nadeem

bujh jaaegaa ik roz tiri yaad kaa shola
lekin mire siine mein dhuaan yuun hi rahegaa

ye mohabbat bhi ek neki hai
is ko dariyaa mein Daal aate hain

apni hi ravaani mein bahtaa nazar aataa hai
ye shahr bulandi se dariyaa nazar aataa hai

pukaarte the mujhe aasmaan magar main ne
qayaam karne ko ye khaak-daan pasand kiyaa

ek lamha lauT kar aayaa nahin
ye baras bhi raaegaan rukhsat huaa

ham Thahre raheinge kisi taabir ko thaame
aankhon mein koi khvaab ravaan yuun hi rahegaa

shaahraahein dafatan shoale ugalne lag gaiin
ghar ki jaanib chal paDaa hai shahr gheraa kar tamaam

gham hai na ab khushi hai na ummid hai na yaas
sab se najaat paae zamaane guzar gae

zamaana mujh se judaa ho gayaa zamaana huaa
rahaa hai ab to bichhaDne ko mujh se tu baaqi

tumhein fursat ho duniyaa se to ham se aa ke milnaa
hamaare paas fursat ke sivaa kyaa rah gayaa hai

aasmaan jhaank rahaa hai 'khaalid'
chaand kamre mein mire utraa hai

vo na aaegaa hamein maalum thaa is shaam bhi
intizaar us kaa magar kuchh soch kar karte rahe
